Henderson, an Army veteran from Kentucky was charged with VA fraud;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>An indictment issued Wednesday by a federal grand jury in Charlottesville alleges 50-year-old Army veteran Phillip M. Henderson of Olive Hill, Kentucky, exaggerated his vision loss to receive benefits. The indictment says Henderson fraudulently received about $800,000, including money for installation of a swimming pool and a vehicle, over the last 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson faces nine counts of wire fraud. Each count is punishable by up to 30 years in prison.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m not exactly sure what a swimming pool has to do with vision, but right off the top of my head, I&#8217;m thinking that they need to investigate some VA employees. The same goes for an adaptive vehicle. Of course, maybe I&#8217;m a little jaded because I&#8217;m trying to get some adaptive work done to my house and an adapted vehicle so I can get back on the road, but the only VA employees I can talk to are the kind who give me excuses why I can&#8217;t get the work done &#8211; 9 months of that BS, meanwhile the VA is buying swimming pools for blind guys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Associated Press reports that Phillip M.
