In a quick action on Monday, the three counts of alleged Medicaid fraud against the former owner of Bluegrass Autism in Danville were dismissed amid allegations of misconduct by an attorney general’s office investigator.
Judge Darren Peckler granted the request by Edward Donzell Parker’s attorneys to drop the case. Brent Caldwell and Noel Caldwell would not comment other than to refer to the motion to dismiss the indictment they filed.
The motion to dismiss alleges that Attorney General Investigator Reed Wilbers, who was the only prosecution witness to appear before the grand jury, made “patently false and misleading statements.”
