Veteran guilty of stealing $900k in DVA benefits

| February 15, 2012

Navy veteran Ronnie Glenn Eddings pleaded guilty to stealing for 16 years veterans’ benefits from the Department of Veterans’ Affairs to the tune of about nine hundred thousand dollars. He claimed he was injured in the 1st Gulf War and wheelchair-bound despite the fact that he held down jobs as a security guard, a social worker and a sheriff’s office transportation officer.

Eddings is scheduled to be sentenced during the term of court beginning in May. He faces up to 10 years in prison.

That’s why when scumbags like Joe Cryer, the Chippendale SEAL tell me that their VA pension is proof of their fairy tales, I don’t listen. I don’t understand the process that DVA uses to deny benefits to guys who deserve it, but then there are these cumbubbles who slip through the cracks.

By the way, this dickweed stole from all of us veterans and it’s money we’ll never get back.

Jonn, Jonn, Jonn, you just don’t understand that the money he received does benefit us all. It was a stimulus program, after all.

Some of the onus lies with the DVA… Maybe even most of it!

Although disturbing and annoying, seeing a reporter or a VSO getting duped isn’t as troubling, to me, as these kinds of stories.

In this case some bureaucrat dropped the ball.

Thankfully, I’ve received government “assistance” a grand total of two weeks in my entire life since the age of 17, plus ONE Pell Grant for $2000 my freshman year of college.

I know people who NEED assistance that are basically told to pound sand, but sit on your ass or be an adult wearing a fucking diaper and the government will bend over backwards for your worthless ass.

Time to invoke Tessalonians: “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.”

Unfortunately, this looks like it may have a “blue on blue” aspect. It appears that the deputy had also severed 4 years in the USMC.

Regardless, it is tragic.

Oops – wrong thread.

You know what pisses me off the most is somehow this asshat faked his way into getting benefits. I can send in documented evidence from the DVA and the military somehow they still can’t get their shit straight. I wonder if the do get homeless people to do the ratings…

NothingSpecial

$900,000/16 = $56,250/YR

WTF, over? Not a bad retirement starting at age 25.

Fmedges

@6 no kidding man, I’m sick and tired of appealing legitimate claims only to have stuff like awarding this asshat go on.

This is sickening.

DaveO

Something about the math isn’t right. How’d he get $900K in 16 years?

Stupid Pentagon math?

100% doesn’t equal that amount. School, legal fees, prosthetics, meds…

Still not seeing it. It’s the VA, they handle money like they handle medicine: poorly.

Yat Yas 1833

@10 DaveO, IMHO it’s not the money, it’s the principal. Case in point, an AF jet engine mechanic friend of mine had an accident involving, get this, a jet engine and when he retired it took him YEARS to get everything straight with the VA. He had a scar on his head a football field long n damn near as deep as the Grand Canyon but they kept needing more and more documentation. He could have taken a medical then and there but he wouldn’t hear of it. It was his duty to finish his 20 yrs! Drove his lovely wife nuts.

AF types, just curious, is it common to retire at 20 as an E-6?

Remember, docs at most MTF are told to lowball or deny PTSD diagnoses to “save” the VA money.
It’s time for some independent auditors to go through the VA’s books and clean house.

Just Plain Jason

Don’t forget the 10 of thousands of cases that appeared at the Detroit VISN office when they offered amnesty to the raters there. The files were hidden all over the place. I think the story was linked here a while back…

Joe Williams

I had to fight 36 years to get my VA rating up. The reason Iwas working. Not as aviation mech,but as a janitor. Finally when I had to quit due to my back pain becoming too much,the VA also suddently found that I had very high blood pressure also.I had to move to Oklahoma where Service really worked for you.

Friggin’ moron…

Makes me sick that idiots like this get what they do not deserve and many that deserve it never get doodlysquat.

I’m not talking about myself here, I am talking about kids nowadays and those that really deserve it.

I see a lot of them at the VA here in Milwaukee and it tears my heart out to watch so many of them in so much pain.

The pop quiz got me thinking of this clown again.

Of all the entries in the tourney, this guys actions are just plain low.

Just an Old Dog

I don’t get it. I have a slam dunk case as far as getting my pension raised, and the VA and Social Security both are screwing around with me. I have attended some VA sessions and saw some 70-100% rated guys there. Some were pretty jacked up, others drove up in brand new hummers, wearing bling out the ass hopped out whistling, grabbed a cane, then proceeded to “limp” into class.

Green Thumb

I hope this cunt is in a lot of pain.

Green Thumb

Bitch.

Scott Platts

Because of these assholes that’s why my disability claim is still not finished because they want to question me after after 23 years of service, they think I am bullshitting them when they have all the copies of my medical records

Robot Wrangler

@26 Darlin I didnt besmirch my integrity by conning the VA out of benifits I did not earn. Defend him all you want, but he is still a lying piece of dog shit in my book and nothing you say will change that.

ChipNASA

@27
Wow she’s almost as amusing and talented a sockpuppet as Paul K Wickre….bless their hearts.

TheCloser

@25, @26 – You must be very proud. Why pull up a dead thread to ensure visibilty for those who hadn’t seen this?

Robot Wrangler

@29 I take it you mean 24,26? I didnt necro this thread, I just responded.

OldSargeUSAR

Ronnie Dickweed is now gonna qualify for an Obamacare subsidy.

And @26 qualifies for a rubber room in a State mental hospital.

Bed-wetters a pair.

@24. That just can’t be real. Just can’t be. But if it is, oh boy, are we gonna have a good time!

Sparks

I Googled him and he got 5 years in prison and 3 years supervised release plus $893,739 in compensation, reported Sept. 5th 2012. Should have gotten the whole ten years. If you are going to fake a wheel chair bound vet…stay in the wheel chair! Dumb ass! Meanwhile there are people on this thread and others still waiting in the VA backlog for honestly deserved benefits.

ChipNASA

Now now everyone,
I have news for you……”Delena” is the new Vice President DHS Business Development at All Points Logistics.
*snerk*

TheCloser

You are correct Robot, sorry about that.

Robot Wrangler

Tis all good, I needed a diversion here today at work and Delena gave me just that.

And shouldnt it be Felon in law now instead of father in law?

Smitty

Robot Wrangler

Yo I’m gonna necro the shit all out of this motha fukka, u know my daddy in law aint to punk ass bitch, he faked his ass off fo that money yo.

Or something to that effect.

Smitty

Chip, thats awesome

2/17 Air Cav

Maybe a Dawn or a Heather but I’m not buying that delena stuff.

@38. You are close but not yet fluent. Watch your subject-verb agreement. They agree and that’s not standard in stupidassheetese.

Robot Wrangler

Damn and I thought I was doing so well…. 😛

Smitty

time to go back to the remedial course

OWB

u dunnA WHA?

Just An Old Dog

Delena,
Thanks for verifying what we already knew from your asshole Pop-in-law’s criminal conduct. He probably felt “entitled” to whatever he could steal from the taxpayers. He probably thinks he got the shaft and was unjustly convicted, after all faking being wheelchair bound while working full time jobs is just “getting your $$$$”.
That you came on here and typed a illiterate vulgar response shows that Ronnie Glenn Eddings extended family are probably a bunch of shit bags too. I truly hope somewhere in his gene pool someone emerged with a bit of honesty and self-sufficiency.
Also this thread was dead for 5 months before you decided to drag your shit-bag father in laws name back into the limelight.
Like an enraged chimp throwing it’s shit at the walls you are doing nothing more than bringing unwanted attention. The more posts on here the more chances that your beloved Pop-in-Laws name Ronnie Glen Eddings will pop up in a negative way when googled.
People that hire at car washes, day labor, fast food and janitorial companies all will probably google him when he applies after his stay in the gray bar hotel.
If this site pops up along with the story of his stealing he will never hold a job.
Clear a spot on your couch, he’s gonna need it.

By the way.

Oh and your shit-bag Pop in Law tried to Appeal his sentence and got his ass bitch-slapped again.

“Upon review of the record, we conclude that the
district court gave sufficient reasons for its upward variance.
The district court emphasized that the advisory Guidelines range
did not account for the length of time during which Eddings
committed his crime, the damage to the public trust created by
his deception, and the full impact of Eddings’ theft.”

In other words the appeals court agreed that he was a long term lying thieving piece of dog shit and deserved the higher end of a sentence.
You might want to keep that wheelchair handy for pop in law, he may need it if he is getting a well deserved ass-pounding in prison.

Terd.

Assclown.

I hope someone kicks this guys ass so hard that he has to stay in a wheelchair.

Then this turd will now what it is like.

Fuck this dude.
