Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt announced that a Pettis County man pled guilty to the class D felony of Violations Involving Health Care Payments after submitting false timesheets.

According to the release, Sherwin Marshall submitted false timesheets for allegedly receiving personal care services and no services were ever provided.

Marshall convinced a health care worker to participate in his scheme, who was prosecuted as a co-defendant. Marshall received the payments that he fraudulently caused to be paid by Medicaid.

Marshall was sentenced to 5 years in the Department of Corrections, with the execution of the sentence suspended, placed on probation for 5 years with special conditions, and ordered to pay $6,181.06 in restitution to Medicaid.
