Doesn’t that mean she made nearly $1 million profit?
I say let her keep the money. She was doing a public service for the smart ones.
No. She already forfeited $1.2 million so she is in the hole big time. Somebody needs to set up a Go Fund Me page. She is a hero. Her charges were not unreasonable and she saved lives.
Yes, it does. The ‘fine’ should be on top of paying back all that was stolen. Quite a haul for her. It’s tough, having been raised to believe in the value of hard work and ethical conduct all of my life, to see such criminality rewarded on a daily basis. The sheer number of cases like this seems to have overwhelmed the systems that used to keep society in check. We’re not set up to handle it, as the presumption in the creation of those systems was that while yes, there will be criminality, it will be the exception and not the rule.
>>Doesn’t that mean she made nearly $1 million profit?
Nope, the fine was AFTER forfeiture.
From the article:
“She avoided jail time and was instead sentenced to 840 hours of community service, five years of probation, and had to forfeit $1.2 million, much of which was already seized from her home, along with ledgers documenting the profits.”
I recently turned someone in for Medicaid fraud. 5 years worth. I found out they got her for $16,400. That is for an estimated $250,000 worth of pure fraud. I wrote the AG a scathing letter and said I’d like to get that kind of return on my money.
Good roi 🤷🏼♂️
SURE SEEMS LIKE THAT.
