Child Welfare Fraud Gets Its First Grand Jury?

Relax, this is just another example of Medicaid fraud in child welfare.

What caught my eye was the fact that there was a grand jury.

We need to bring back the right of grand jury, or just establish it in child welfare fraud allegations.

What is a grand jury?

It is a group of, typically, 12, with more in reserve, based upon the Magna Carta, but what is most interesting is that you cannot serve on a grand jury if you are a convicted felon and whose name cannot be found on a property tax rolls.

In the world of child welfare, this means that the likelihood of "The Poors" (always said with clinched teeth) participating on a grand jury is slim.

The Poors are typically the ones who are having their children legally kidnapped by CPS for being poor.

In child welfare proceedings, there are no juries, hell, there is no parallel jurisprudence because child welfare workers have the right to lie.

The Poors, well, those who have the wherewithal to approach law enforcement to even get a grand jury convened, have been successful in the issuance of an indictment on a child welfare case worker for fraud.

In trial, there will be the petit jury, which I do not believe hails from the same restrictive criteria of a grand jury, but that is an entirely different rabbit hole.

The Poors, whistleblowers as they are the original sources, are the only ones who have first hand knowledge of fraud in child welfare.

Now, let us sit back and see if the Kansas Attorney General Medicaid Fraud Control Unit is going to go after the fraudulent billing in these cases, but I would not hold my breath as there exists substantial conflicts of interests, oh, like, Medicaid fraud in child welfare,

FORMER JEFFCO CASEWORKER TASKED WITH INVESTIGATING CHILD ABUSE ACCUSED OF FALSYING INFORMATION

A grand jury has returned a 22-count indictment against Richelle Schultz, a former Jefferson County Department of Human Services caseworker accused of falsifying information.

Schultz, whose job was to investigate complaints of child abuse and neglect, has been charged with 12 counts of attempt to influence a public servant and 10 counts of forgery, the district attorney's office said in a news release.

Schultz was employed with JeffCO between December 2015 and July 2016. Schultz' offenses are alleged to have occurred between April 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016.

After leaving the job in July 2016, a review of Schultz' work determined she had entered false information into the department's database in 12 cases. In the 12 cases Schultz said she had interviewed the victim, family and/or witnesses and a later investigation showed she had not.

The indictment was returned on Sept. 1, 2017. Schultz turned herself into the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office on September 15 and and posted a $16,000 bond on Sept. 16.

Her next court date is slated for Oct. 2.

Oh, by the way, entering false information into the States' child welfare databases, and the courts, is pro forma.

I wonder how many parental rights were terminated and children adopted out because of this?
