When a loved one?s health is hanging in the balance, one might think that a husband would do anything in his power to help his wife. One might think that, but in the case of a man who was sentenced to 18 months in prison for stealing more than $530,000 in health insurance payments, he used that money on things like cars and a skid loader instead of paying for his wife?s kidney dialysis.
The Morning Call says the 53-year-old man is headed to jail for 18 months and must pay back the $532,000 or so in health insurance payments he stole from a health care benefit program.
Authorities says he simply swiped the checks issued by his insurance company in 2010 and 2011, instead of funding his wife?s thrice-weekly dialysis treatments. She?passed away in 2011.
Instead of using that dough to pay for his wife?s medical care, investigators say he splashed out on a truck for $33,000; a skid loader that costs upwards of $38,000 and a 1970 Ford Mustang at $19,000. Clearly, all necessities.
He pleaded guilty to nine counts of theft from health care benefits program and three counts of money laundering. There?s no such thing as free money, people.
