Retarded


So a woman was convicted of defrauding the government by coaching her kids on how to fake mental retardation.

Really.

She started when they were young, and got tons of social security money out of the deal by having her kids "fake it" with social workers. The boy was still faking being challenged up until he was in his mid 20's!

How did they get busted? The boy went to traffic court to contest a ticket, and he did so VERY lucidly. And it was caught on camera. I remember seeing this story several months back when the video aired on some news channel (probably Entertainment Tonight or something).

Rumor has it when asked how she got the idea, the mom evidently said, "Well, after seeing that Corky kid on Life Goes On I figured if he could do it, so could my kids."

Her response just floors me. She obviously didn't believe what she had seen on TV.

This just goes to prove that Darwinism doesn't always work. This "brain trust" should've been sterilized as soon as she reached birthing age.
