FRANKFORT, KY – Attorney General Daniel Cameron has announced that action by his Medicaid Fraud Unit resulted in the indictment of Kenneth Verne Anderson, 68, and Gina Smith Anderson, 63, of McCracken County for theft and the exploitation of vulnerable adults.

On December 2, 2022, a McCracken County Grand Jury indicted Kenneth and Gina Anderson on 25 counts of:

  • Knowing Exploitation of an Adult of more than $300 (Class C Felony)
  • Five counts of Theft by Failure to Make Required Disposition of Property over $10,000 (Class C Felony)
  • One count of Theft by Failure to Make Required Disposition of Property over $1,000 but less than $10,000 (Class D Felony).

According to the indictment, from 2006 to 2022, the couple knowingly exploited the finances of numerous vulnerable adults.   

This case was investigated by Detective Greg Dukes of the Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Unit. Deputy Director of the Medicaid Fraud Unit David Startsman and Assistant Attorney General Emily Campbell presented the case before the McCracken County Grand Jury on behalf of the Commonwealth.

The charges in an indictment are allegations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
