Might look into a crime for using your identity. The rest is pointless.
If someone is convicted of crimes committed on federal property in the federal court in DC, can they also be tried under DC’s local jurisdiction for crimes not covered by federal law but covered by DC's local law? Or would it be double jeopardy?

The facts as you have set them out would seem to indicate it is not legal. Medicaid or SS are the only ones who might possibly be obligated to investigate. A decision would then be based on the findings of their investigation as to whether a crime has been committed.

The time stamp is overlapped and video is froze in the middle of the recording. Only audio continues. Is it possible that the recording can be suppressed and not be allowed as evidence or is this something that has to wait until trial? (Federal / Criminal). Thank you for your time.

If there is proof, it can be addressed by suppression prior to trial.
The evidence log / chain of custody that’s in my discovery was filled out by the last agent that received the property. The writing and signatures are very clearly the same handwriting. The agent filled out dates for dates before he had custody of the evidence. Can evidence be suppressed?
