She claimed that she had a child with Randall Cox, a veteran who was killed in his High Point, NC apartment in 2006 in an unsolved murder case. She collected benefits from 2000 until May, 2017;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p> According to a High Point Police Department report, the investigation started in 2006 when Elizabeth Cox lived in High Point. She later moved to Fort Bragg where she was arrested in Oct. 23 by Army officials and the State Bureau of Investigation.<\/p>\n<p>When authorities arrested Cox, she had her bags packed at the door, $500 cash and tickets to go on a cruise, according to court documents. Records stated Cox also had $20,000 in a savings account.<\/p>\n<p>A grand jury on Nov. 13 found there was enough evidence to support prosecution and issued a true bill of indictment on a charge of felony obtaining property by false pretenses for more than $100,000. She was given a $1 million bond and is being held in the Guilford County Jail in High Point.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It makes me wonder how many fakes and phonies are getting checks from the VA.
