That's how the state inspector general describes the actions of two people accused of scamming more than $62,000 from a fund for severely ill patients.

I don't know if I would call it Reprehensible....Since politicians routinely steal that much money all the time and it's really nothing compared to the trillions of dollars the CEO's and Investment bankers stole. I'm sure these people will get nailed to the wall and sent to State prison while the people that stole billions each will get none or very little prison time at the Country club prisons for Rich people.

This is Reprehensible and totally the lowest of lows. Those 2 better hope they don't contract some kind of terrible illness and have to depend on the generousity of others . They will be left for well you know and they would deserve it.How could they be so heartless?

Personally, I think all RESEARCH grants go directly into pharmacology to develop new drugs which are never going to be intended as a cure since that will cost jobs! Sooo... all medical illness funds are a scam!

Times Union website states that she is the brother of someone working for Tedisco. The good thing is she is terminated from ODTA. Don't see her telecommuting from a jail cell.
