Louisiana's 'Medicaid millionaire'

A woman bought a Lamborghini, got plastic surgery and owned businesses that brought in $9.5 million in revenue - all while receiving Medicaid benefits, prosecutors in Louisiana said. Candace Taylor, 35, is now charged with government benefits fraud, Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill announced July 29 in a news release. Prosecutors called Taylor a "Medicaid millionaire," saying she concealed her true income and falsified financial information for years to obtain benefits she didn't need. Agents with the Louisiana Bureau of Investigation said they learned Taylor owned six companies, which an arrest affidavit said brought in $9.5 million from 2020 to 2024, according to prosecutors. "In 2020, despite being approved for Medicaid and claiming to possess no income, her account recorded deposits totaling $480,994.09, with over $325,000 directly attributable from her business activities," prosecutors wrote.
