From 2010 to 2013, 48-year-old Venita Godfrey-Scott directed her employees to use materials and supplies intended for VA medical center upkeep on her own house. These taxpayer-funded home improvement projects included “a deck in her backyard, carpet installation, and various kitchen, bathroom and basement improvements.” She also instructed employees to buy other necessary materials with her government-issued credit card, and had them work on these projects during normal work hours, when they were being paid by the VA.
Godfrey-Scott was a facilities supervisor, responsible for “carpentry, paint, locks, doors, and other minor construction projects,” for the VA Medical Center in West Haven, Conn.

ReplyDeleteIf thats the taxpayers materials in her home they should be removed, from the deck to the new toilets! Why should she have use of them aafter a short jail stint and probably a fine of 1/5 of the loss to tax payers?

ReplyDeletethe house should be auctioned at a celebrity filled event to bring in a higher price and the proceeds go to a Veteran's group like Wounded Warriors (not the actual VA-they would just embezzle that money too). She should be homeless after her jail time.
