ALBANY, Ga. -- A negotiated plea bargain sent two women to prison and required more than $117,000 in restitution from each, a Dougherty County court official stated.
"They recruited members of their church to collect payroll checks from their employer," said Assistant District Attorney Arkesia Jenkins. "They got $100 and the rest of the pay went to the two women."
Hijuna Florence and Chandra Reid, also known as Chandra Thomas, were sentenced by Superior Court Judge Stephen Goss Tuesday after pleading guilty to Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations charges.
"They operated from October 2006 until September 2010," Jenkins said. "I doubt the Hendersons (owners of J.R. Loving Care, a home health care business where the two women operated their scam) will ever see all their money back."

All they have to do is sell their 5 Series Mercedes/7 Series BMW to get their $117k.
Here's guessing that these two attended the church that coach johnson attends. That's the morality and ethics he demonstrates.

You'd think with all that money they'd have at least looked decent.

This was a "witch hunt" and a highly successful one!

I think we can take these two and their church buddies off the "suspect" list.

@Sister_Ruby, factually one of the young ladies drives a Honda Civic. Stop spreading lies people. If your going to criticize then do it with the FACTS!!!

The phrase "young ladies" used to mean something........not anymore apparently.

I refer them as young ladies because of their age and gender. Stop being ridiculous and read a book or something.
