VA Administrator In Phoenix Tasered After Allegedly Threatening Suicide (Picture)
Former Phoenix VA chief of health care threatened suicide yesterday and was tasered by local police in his home following his recent termination for management over corruption and fraud linked to veteran deaths in the VA wait list scandal.
Brad Curry, former Chief of Health Administration at Phoenix VA, was terminated last month following the explosive national scandal that VA employees had inflicted manslaughter by killing veterans by manipulating wait times for urgently needed health care – and even collected 5-figure bonuses for their criminal scheme. VA chiefs like Brad Curry benefited financially and professionally as a result of their fraudulent scheme that made hospital performance numbers look great when they were actually horrifying.
Curry and three other employees were fired as a direct result of their involvement in the VA scandal to this point. We have to wonder what is going on in the heads of his fellow Phoenix VA staffers since their chances of finding non-VA and non-federal employment are next to impossible. Will they commit suicide like so many veterans who see their chances of having a normal life grow dimmer by the weeks and months as this national scandal and healthcare horror story grows larger? And should we, as veterans, really care?
Curry’s family called 911 after they found the former VA chief in a fit of rage. Curry was reported by his own family members running around his home with a gun claiming he was going to commit suicide or hurt himself. How many veterans did he cause to suffer the same trauma and fate who actually pulled the trigger?
Stand right, stand tall for these vets; It’s about more than just waving the flag
Amazing……vets commit suicide at stunning rates in this country after seeking treatment at VA hospitals and being ignored.
