Fraud is an ugly word. Let us not paint the wide brush that someone can still have legitimate PTSD and still fish. The evidence they had on these folks go to the extreme and sure looks like a lack of integrity. There is an epidemic of poser PTSD out there. Its a tough one to document unless you are with that person from 10pm to 8am. Just cause you go fishing at 9am does not mean you do not suffer from PTSD. This case included recorded evidence of coaching to fool medical board. This is a clear case of fraud. GO TO JAIL.

First responders are no different than other folks. Plenty of sorry SOB's in this profession.
Our society has gone most folks working until they die of old age to let me try to find a way to get paid more for less work. They are sorry people, they stole from the tax payer and they should be ruined and sent to prison.............just like a whole bunch of folks in DC

Remember, New York City has over 34,500 uniformed police officers and over 10,700 uniformed firefighters. Not counting the corrections officers that's 45,200 plus public servants and only 100 of them (maybe a score or two more) are prosecuted for this. That's 1 out of every 452 officers. Not a bad stat.
There are definitely some butt heads out there tho. And they need to go to jailLast edited by UltraMax; 01-08-2014, 09:32 AM.

Originally posted by Landrover View PostSaw this yesterday and decided not to post. Seems to be a very oddly delicate subject on TBH when it comes to first responders. I always take people at face value until they show me something different.......regrettably the 80/20 rule tends to prove itself correct!

Bad apples makes the bunch look bad, send them to jail and make them return the money. PTSD is something that can be manipulated to the advantage of someone who knows the system, I know this cause I have a family member that gets disability from PTSD and not only have they never been in the military or a first responder but they have never really been gainfully employed, sad really.
