If this has been discussed sorry. Searched and didn't see it. But I'm shocked. Not that I was a huge Matthews fan but he was never a terrible person or someone known for trouble.

I apologize some idiot on the radio said he received 40 years. This article says 3 months.

He always seemed like a good guy but I suppose everyone romantics a period of their life when they were young.

Well I know people aren't physically hurt but losing your money and you can't get it back is difficult to recover from. People lose their homes and their lives are destroyed.

It shouldn't be a big meh. From the article:

"massive health care fraud scandal that included “swindling millions from a federal program that provides medical insurance for the U.S. military"

It sounds like Matthews only played a bit part. The real culprit was Grow.

While they should be punished. They shouldn't get worse than murders or rapists.

Damn. How complicated could it be? Looks like they ripped off military and got sent to the stony lonesome. Idiots.

Matthews also cohosts a radio show with Brady Ackerman in Gainesville. Sorry I missed the show today to see if he was still on.
