PC | "This accused falsely claimed to be a medical doctor and a Ph.D in psychology. He provided forged documents to support these claims. Based on these qualifications he signed a contract with the Federal Government to bill it for psychological services rendered.... He set up an agency providing psychological services, and over two years sent in 486 invoices totalling $250,000....The accused pled guilty to fraud. He had a record for making a false affidavit, and one count of fraud.
...The court considered it aggravating that there was a breach of trust, not only towards the government, but also towards the patients, who thought that they were treated by a qualified practitioner in two highly personal professions. It was also aggravating that the offence was obviously premeditated.
...It was mitigating that the accused pled guilty. Like the present case, it would have been a provable case, but a trial would be lengthy and expensive.
...The Provincial Court Judge imposed a sentence equivalent to four years in custody." | |
