August 29, 2012 forever changed my life. It all started on July 27, 2012 when to save time I decided to download the corporate documents of my company only to find one additional company with the name that we were using for invoicing on the Instituto Venezolano de los Seguros Sociales (IVSS), curious if I had registered the name and I had forgotten, I decided to download both documents, as I read the second document “RISMED Dialysis Systems” I then knew that I had been defrauded by my own stepson, a young boy I had raised from age 14 and had raised him as my own child. Very unfortunate, when his father started to come to see them, they forgot all of the good principles they had been thought at home and at church. He had attended Pensacola Christian College, the two younger ones had attended Madison Baptist Church School; all of the Christian teachings did not make a dent on the delinquent blood running through their veins. It has been 7 years since I found out that my own wife and the children I raised had colluded with their father/ex-husband to defraud me. Today they cannot sleep, they do not know when the FBI will be knocking on their doors, as for the Rangel Baron, they cannot travel to the USA, cannot go to Venezuela, I have learned that they cannot live in Panama either, I guess their crimes are finally catching on with them. Hopefully the authorities will grab Felix Alberto Rangel Varon, who lives in Miami, FL, so far he has scape the justice system in Venezuela and the justice system in the USA…there is still time to catch him and deport him to go pay for his crimes in Venezuela.

Back in late July 2012 when I found that my stepson Daniel Alberto Rangel Di Nardo had registered RISMED Dialysis Systems as his corporation back in April 3, 2006 I realized that I had had the enemy in my own home and never knew, however before acting, I decided to meet with my stepson’s father, I felt that the fraud had much deeper roots. It took many telephone calls before Daniel Rangel Baron agreed to meet me at my business office in Maracaibo, Venezuela. The day of the meeting arrived and I had asked my wife to be present, I knew it was fraud planned by Daniel Rangel Baron and aided and abetted by my stepson and my wife but I needed to have confirmation, this was a crime of unimaginable proportions, I needed to have all of the evidence before I could accept that I had been defrauded by own family.

Daniel Rangel Baron finally arrived at my office, we went into my office, he sat in front of my desk and I asked my wife to seat to my right. I asked him why was he using the name of my company, his response was that RISMED is just a name, a name anyone could use, indeed, anyone could use the name RISMED because I never saw a need to Trademark the name, however anyone who would have used the name legally would have been someone who never knew who I am, who would have been in a totally different business and whose client not be the IVSS. Finally after about thirty minutes discussing the use of the name Daniel Rangel Baron said “The man [Gen. Jesus Mantilla Oliveros] refused to change the name in the contract; we were forced to use your name“. Finally, the criminal had confessed, now I had his confession. He went on to say that he was willing to pay me for the use of the name RISMED, I said that the case went much further that using the name of my company, he had committed fraud.

After Daniel Rangel Baron left, I turned to my wife and said to her did you hear Daniel Rangel’s confession? She turned to me and said “You are wrong if you believe I will ever testify in your favor.“

It was 1997 when on a summer day of June I received a phone call from Pierina Di Nardo Carrero, a surprise call, Pierina went on to tell me that her father had passed away, her sister Liliana, who had been with her father throughout his sickness, was very sad and constantly crying, she asked me if I would call Liliana, she will be very happy said Pierina. Feeling sorry for their loss, I called Liliana, indeed she was very happy to hear from me; it had been two years since we had last seen and spoken to each other.

A few days later I received a call from Liliana Di Nardo again, this time to let me know she was going to Miami and she would like to see me. I agreed to go to Miami. We spent a few days in Miami before I continued my trip to visit a customer.

By December 1997 we had decided to get married, she had three children, two boys 9 and 14 years old and a girl 8 years old. They came to the United States and settled in Huntsville, Alabama where I had resided since 1990. Life was pretty normal, a couple raising three kids, because of their lack of knowing the language I had the responsibility to enroll them in school and all other activities that required knowing the English language.

Sometime in 1999 the children’s father asked me for a job, he had been unemployed for a while, I had some needs with my customers that he could help me with, I hired him to write contracts for my customers and to be in charge of delivering the equipment and collecting the payments. In year 2000 I learned that the IVSS was looking for suppliers of dialysis products, I promptly submitted quotations and samples of our products, the project was very demanding, I asked Daniel Rangel Baron if he could take care of presenting the different products to the IVSS and whatever requests they had, he did. In the meantime we learned of other needs in the public hospitals in Caracas. We were able to help a couple of hospitals with problems that other suppliers had not been able to help. In 2004 the IVSS finally asked us to provide them with a quote for 25% of the dialysis yearly supplies, we did. In 2005 we finally received the first order.

By the 2nd to 3rd quarter of 2006 the IVSS had stopped sending payments to our company RISMED Oncology Systems (aka RISMED Dialysis Systems). Since Daniel Rangel Baron will not give me an answer of what was going on, I decided to write to the president of the IVSS Jesus Mantilla Oliveros, however I did not receive and answers back. Finally Daniel Rangel Baron told me that we had lost the contract, I asked what was the motive, I knew that we had given them superb service, had complied with every need from the nurses and doctors, what could be the reason? Daniel Rangel Baron only repeated that we had lost the contract.

I contacted an attorney in Caracas to help me find out what had really happened, the attorney said that the government officials were very corrupt and that probably someone had offered kickbacks and that was the reason for terminating the contract; do not throw good money after bad money, said the attorney. I decided at that moment to let go and we concentrated our time in growing the oncology business, by that time we had already opened our first oncology center.

Six years later, on a July 27 2012, while looking for the corporate documents of the company I had decided to download the documents from the Alabama Secretary of State website to save time. That day I learned that we had never lost the contract, instead my stepson working with his father had decided that they would steal my contract, they found resistance with the president of the IVSS who refused to change the contract to their name, when they realized that they could not easily steal the contract they decided to defraud me by using my company’s name, they registered on April 3, 2006, under my stepson’s name RISMED Dialysis Systems (the name I was using to invoice the IVSS). Armed with the Alabama registration of RISMED, they went to Miami, opened an account at Bank of America and CitiBank [Citibank acct number 2010041600031779] , went to Venezuela to the IVSS and requested that the bank account be change, from the Regions Bank in Alabama to the CitiBank in Miami. It has been said that Daniel Rangel Baron also presented a falsified power of attorney where I supposedly had authorized the change. The corrupt system at the IVSS has made it difficult to obtain proof of the alleged falsified power of attorney.

In 2005-2006 during a dispute with the company NIPRO I wrote to the president of NIPRO in Japan informing him of illegal behavior of his office in Miami who at that time was also a supplier to the IVSS. I learned later that NIPRO’s office in Miami was pressuring Daniel Rangel Baron to write a letter to the president of NIPRO in Japan informing him that we were dropping our demands. I found the letter written to NIPRO were Daniel Alberto Rangel Di Nardo had written the letter using our company letterhead and he had signed the letter as me. When I first saw the letter I questioned when I had written the letter, as I read the letter again and looked carefully at the signature I realized that my stepson Daniel Alberto Rangel Di Nardo had falsified my signature, I knew it was a grave error, however I decided not to notified NIPRO and the authorities of my stepson illegal behaviour. When I was told of the power of attorney submitted to the IVSS I immediately thought of the falsely signed letter to NIPRO.

The crimen had been confessed. Now that the crime was confessed, where do we from here? Anyone caught committing a crime would have look for ways to correct the problem, anyone except the Rangel Baron Di Nardo, for over the last three decades this group of criminals have been honing their craft. Isabel Cristina Rangel Baron, the youngest of the Rangel Baron mafia, has become a true expert in bribery, her smooth approach can turn the best men in delinquents before they know it, her approach goes for a cozy night to the most expensive gifts. She has elevated bribery into an art. Gen. Carlos Rotondaro took over the presidency of the IVSS, the rumor was that Gen. Rotondaro was going to clean up the IVSS, first in the list were the Rangel Baron, known delinquents in the public circles of the venezuelan government, Gen. Rotondaro was not aware of the abilities of Isabel, his main intentions were to kick out Daniel Rangel Baron as far as he could, Daniel knowing the exceptional abilities of his sister, moved aside to allow Isabel to take over, the word is that it took Isabel one night and 12 of the most expensive french suits to close the deal with Gen. Rotondaro. Isabel followed with a first deposit of $6.5 Million under a numerical account to avoid tracing the account to Gen. Rotondaro, she then purchased two apartments for Gen. Rotondaro at General de Saint-Germain-des-Prés de París, Gen. Rotondaro daughters lived in the apartments while they went to school in Paris. The abilities of Isabel were well compensated by Gen. Rotondaro, soon thereafter Isabel enjoyed having an office within the offices of the IVSS, a privilege reserved only for those who pay the highest bribes. In 2012 Isabel Cristina Rangel Baron said that she could not spend in three lives all of the money she had made with the IVSS and MinSalud.

Isabel understanding what her brother Daniel had done, decided to create RISMED Dialysis Systems in Venezuela on March 19, 2007 to simulate that the orders were being managed through RISMED Venezuela. The Rangel Baron created RISMED in the state of Florida on July 17, 2008, RISMED Costa Rica on August 8, 2011, not understanding that the fraud was done in 2006 when they first registered RISMED in the state of Alabama, clearly with the sole intent to defraud RISMED Oncology.

The Rangel Baron have had special training, their mantra ‘Rich at any price’ was instilled in them by their mother, a lady who had moved from Colombia to Venezuela, her children were born in Colombia with the exception of Isabel who was born in Venezuela. She worked as a maid to rich families in the city of Maracaibo, she paid attention to the benefits of being rich, she learn etiquettes of the well to do and try to passed them to her children, but they have been born in poverty and the last thing they wanted to learn was etiquette. They were conscious of their poverty; their mom made sure they were conscious of the downside of poverty and made sure that ‘Rich at any price’ became an integral part of their lives. and so it did.

Their teachings were so ingrained in their personalities that stealing, commiting fraud and even assassinating opponents was not out of their tools of the trade. More about their trades in the next segment. Isabel became involved with the brother of the governor of the state of Zulia to supply christmas toys to the poor, Isabel, according to Liliana Sandra Di Nardo, committed a significant fraud that almost sent her to jail, the comments were that Isabel was hours away from going to jail.

In January 2013 Liliana Di Nardo understanding that she could not convince me to forget the fraud, left home to go live with her daughter Dianella Rangel Mykitta in Santa Monica, CA. Before she left and understanding that forgetting the fraud was not an option, she told me before leaving “I will ruin you financially so that you will not be able to fight the Rangel”.

“I will ruin you financially so that you will not be able to to fight the Rangel“. Liliana Di Nardo is a member of the Rangel Baron criminal organization. In early 2006 Liliana Di Nardo, who at the time was my wife, aided and abetted the organized crime organization Rangel Baron to defraud me. Soon after she left the house, she empty my bank account and filed for divorce. I realized then what she meant when she said that she will ruin me financially to keep me from being able to fight the Rangel Baron.

During my trip to Venezuela on April 2013, Liliana Di Nardo tried to have me signed a document dated April 15, 2013, a document prepared to exonerate Isabel Rangel Baron, Daniel Rangel Baron, and Daniel Rangel Di Nardo of all crimes committed against me and my company RISMED. Liliana Di Nardo fought very hard, from trying to convince me to abandon the case, to trying to have me sign a document to exonerate the Rangel Baron to filing false charges to have me killed in Venezuela. She is a criminal and so is her son Daniel ALberto Rangel Di Nardo and her associates Felix Alberto Rangel Varon, Jose Antonio Rangel Baron, Isabel Cristina Rangel Baron and Daniel Esgardo Rangel Baron. All evidence is contained in the criminal lawsuits, both alleging false accusations. CPBEZ-DIEP-1281-13 and MP-335-212-2013 filed in the city of Maracaibo, Venezuela.

Liliana Di Nardo traveled to Venezuela to take over my businesses and my properties, to do so, she first filed harassment charges [CPBEZ-DIEP-1281-13] against me, she described herself as my wife, Liliana Di Nardo de Rodriguez. The lawsuit alleged that she had filed charges against me in Huntsville, Alabama. I learned of the lawsuit in December 2013, she had filed the lawsuit on August 2013 according to copies obtained. When I learned of the alleged charges filed in Huntsville, Alabama I went to the courthouse to get a copy, the attendant looked under her name, my name and both our names. It was a lie. She lied to the public authorities in Venezuela hoping to get an order for my arrest. More later about why she wanted to get me arrested.

When Liliana Di Nardo could not get an order for my arrest through charges of harassment, she employed the corporate attorneys, Ronald Bermudez Acosta (Impreabogado 56.925) and Andres Morales Final (Impreabogado 57.653), both from the law firm Mares and Associates in the city of Maracaibo, Venezuela, who had been the corporate attorneys for my corporations. In this new lawsuit [MP-335-212-2013] Liliana Di Nardo describes herself as a Liliana Sandra Di Nardo Chavez, a shareholder and the vice president of the corporations, never mentioned that she was my wife. In the lawsuit she alleges to have gone to obtain a copy of the corporate documents when she discovered that I had had two meetings, in 2009 and 2011, illegally, using forged documents giving myself powers to act alone and name myself president again. She testified that she had seen and read the four letters that I had forged, originals she said. In Venezuela in order to get an order of arrest, the crimes have to amount to time in jail over ten years. The Fiscal (a district attorney) Jorge Ramirez Guijarro, 13th fiscalia of the state of Zulia, kept on looking for charges in order to obtain a sum that will allowed him to obtain an order of arrest. In the order to solicit the arrest order, fiscal Ramirez Guijarro asked Liliana Di Nardo where the police could find me, she answered that in the apartment or the business office. This is August 2013, I had not been to Venezuela since April 2013, she knew I was in Huntsville, Alabama, she also knew the address of my house, she lived there for 13 years and yet she falsely testified of my presence in Venezuela, she went further to say that I was to be apprehended at the earliest because I was a fly risk. She obtained what she had been dreaming off, an order of arrest, she decided to keep the order as a secret weapon hoping that I will go to Venezuela for the company Christmas party, once in Venezuela, she was to ask the fiscal Jorge Ramirez Guijarro to order my arrest.

Take him to El Marite. The arrest order clearly specified that once apprehended I was to be taken to El Marite, one of the most dangerous jails in Venezuela. The plan was described to me by a person who was present when the Rangel Baron were planning my assasination. The plan was to apprehend me, send me to El Marite, let events cool down for 2-3 months, then have a prison inmate assassinate me, declared that a fight among inmates had occurred where I had been killed. This was related to me by someone who was present in the house of Felix Alberto Rangel Varon, when the Rangel Baron were planning my assassination.

The Miami, FL., RISMED Dialysis Systems CitiBank Account 2010041600031779. I have been told that Daniel Rangel Baron paid Gen. Jesus Mantilla Oliveros $3.9 Million in 2006 as a first bribe for allowing him to stay as a supplier to the IVSS. I was also told that a percentage of the Juan Pablo II Dialysis Center in the metropolitan area of Caracas was also given to Gen. Jesus Mantilla Oliveros by Daniel Rangel Baron. The bank accounts at Bank of America and CitiBank were used by Daniel Rangel Baron as money laundering accounts used through the corporations Exim-America, RISMED and 25 other corporations they set up in the state of Florida, many registered under the names of Daniel Esgardo Rangel Baron, Daniel Alberto Rangel Di Nardo, Daniel Alberto Di Nardo, Dianella Mykitta, Felix Alberto Rangel Varon, Brunella Cunha, Jose Antonio Rangel Baron, Isabel Cristina Rangel Baron, Isabel Rangel, Lenin Hernandez, Yonely Ferrebus, Stephen Callaghan, David Rangel Di Nardo. All and more companies, were used by the Rangel Baron as money laundry shell companies. Daniel Alberto Rangel Di Nardo and Dianella Mykitta were the persons in charge to pay bribes. Beyond direct bribes, money was also laundered by selling the U.S. Dollars in the black market for many times the official exchange rate.
