Police: VA employee falsified records in local veteran’s death

Middletown police say they expect to charge a Dayton VA employee next week with patient negligence, falsifying records and possibly theft in office because “he’s getting paid to do a job he’s clearly not doing.”

Lt. Scott Reeve, of the Middletown Division of Police, said detectives have been investigating the home health care worker for the past 10 months and are close to proving he falsified reports about a Middletown veteran who died last year.

Officers found Calvin Coleman, Jr.’s body on March 28 at a residence in the 2200 block of Carolina Street, but investigators believe he died four days prior to their discovery. The Dayton VA employee, who was charged with assisting Coleman, documented that he spoke with him the day before his body was found and visited him on March 25.

“We believe he actually died on the 23rd or the 24th, so when the home health care worker documented his visit on the 25th and 27th, Calvin was already dead,” said Lt. Scott Reeve, of the Middletown Division of Police.

Such employees never get fired by the feds. And where is Sharpton when black lives matter?
