Sovereign Health CEO is operating as a licensed residential treatment facility at his multi-million-dollar Orange County home.

Sovereign's CEO told his neighbors he was retiring, but the I-Team discovered he’s moved out of his multi-million dollar Orange County home, and it's now operating as a licensed rehab and mental health treatment facility.Orange County-based Sovereign Health was once one of the largest rehab and behavioral health companies in the country. But the business shut down in 2018 after an FBI raid and multiple lawsuits.

According to records filed with the Secretary of State, an LLC owns Dana Shores Recovery. The CEO is listed as Charles Hohman. And, in fact, that’s who answered the door when the I-Team knocked to find out more about the business. Hohman did not want to talk on camera, but during a nearly 10-minute long conversation, he repeatedly said he has no idea who Tonmoy Sharma is.

A search of Dana Shores Recovery on a public DHCS database only shows that is licensed and certified to treat six residents. The I-team did not discover any violations for Dana Shores. But its location is concerning to some. Assemblymember Laurie Davies recently introduced legislation calling for more transparency about these facilities.
