Florida Schools Sacred Heart International Institute, Siena College Of Health, & The Palm Beach School Of Nursing Awarded Donkey Of The Day

Donkey Of The Day has been awarded to the following Florida schools: Sacred Heart International Institute, Siena College of Health, and The Palm Beach School of Nursing.

Not too long ago, the FBI came in and busted 25 people (who are anonymous as of this post) for selling fake nursing school degrees to thousands of people.

The South Florida-based scam operation was conducted via the following now-closed nursing schools: Sacred Heart Institute in Fort Lauderdale, Sienna College of Health in Lauderhill, and Palm Beach School of Nursing in West Palm Beach.

According to the investigation known as “Operation Nightingale”, more than $114 million worth of fake nursing diplomas were sold to over 7,600 students.

U.S. Attorney Markenzy Lapointe made the following statement…

The deeply concerning allegations at the center of this investigation goes against the very tenets of the nursing profession.”

Lapointe continued…

Not only is this a public safety concern, it also tarnishes the reputation of nurses who actually complete the demanding clinical and course work required to obtain their professional licenses and employment.”

Lapointe finished with…

The most important thing for us was to make sure, to the extent we’re talking about healthcare, is that we stop the bleeding. What do we learn when somebody gets injured? Stop the bleeding. The bleeding here is to stop those schools from being able to put more fraudulent diplomas out in the public sphere.”

The 25 people arrested have since been charged with conspiring to and committing wire fraud.

They face up to 20 years in prison, if convicted.

Charlamagne Tha God also had his say on this situation and you can give what that is a listen below…
