Julien Williams and his fiancée, Alexiea Irwin, were arrested in Clay County for pretending to be a licensed nurse. According to Action News Jax, the couple was involved after an elderly man under Williams' care passed away. The arrest happened five months after the patient's death, revealing a breach of trust in the healthcare system.
U.S. Marshals arrested two individuals in Michigan. During an interview with Clay County detectives, it was revealed that they were involved in providing fraudulent medical care. They face 14 counts of practicing medicine without a valid license, one count of criminal use of personal identification information, and one count of schemes to defraud, as reported by First Coast News.
"There was no evidence to prove that the elderly man’s cause of death was connected to Williams and Irwin, so they won’t face a manslaughter or murder charge," said Cook in a statement obtained by News4Jax. The Clay County Sheriff's Office confirmed that while those charges were not filed, Williams and Irwin are awaiting extradition to Clay County to face allegations of impersonating medical professionals.
