- Dennis Paulsen collected benefits for years after being diagnosed with MS, but investigators thought photos of him playing sports told a different story.
The dude doesn’t have MS he has BS 🤣🤣🤣💀
100%
You can say that again
People with ms can. Walk. I have a friend who can walk with ms
I was gonna make that joke 😔
@@jannettsnow2856 They can't do what he was doing! He was flat out lying!
"You ran a 10k marathon!"
"Yeah, but it was painful."
LMAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Running is painful on a good day without any handicap. He's just about getting out of jail now, hide the money!
🤣
😂😂😂😂
~snort~ 😂😂😂
what a piece of crap.
meanwhile homeless vets suffering from ptsd and depression are living on the streets
My former boss applied on my behalf while I was in the hospital after a stroke, with right side paralysis still after 11 years. Very thankful to him and my family in getting my approval after six months.
This guy straight up putting him on blast 😂 "You were never in combat...you didn't even finish one tour of duty" bruh 💀

Tour of duty you say? More like call of duty if you ask me.
@@TheMusicHeals.kjhjhhg Well Technically He Is Living A Death Sentence. As Are You And I. We Know We're Gonna Go,We Just Don't Know When
What's wrong with NON-combat vets? They served just like ALL other veterans. (not excusing the POS in this video)
@@glutenfreegam3r177 Except they non-comat vets DO NOT serve like combat vets. what are you on??
I think the craziest part of this story is at one point during the interview they had to ask him to lie on the bed and lay there while they just film him staring at his ceiling for dramatic effect
🤣🤣🤣
Omfg ahahahaha
Blood Beryl HAHAHAHAHA
With an ankle bracelet and those weird looking running foot shoes adding more insult to injury to the DA.
I have Arthritis in my hips. I'd do anything to walk without a walker.
Jackass bold faced liar. Funny he can do all those things being Disabled.
My husband is a disabled veteran who can barley tie his shoes and was denied many services.
This is SO ridiculous .
This interview quite honestly comes off as SNL‘s best sketch in years
Reminds me of the R Kelly interview skit
This guy was terrible at pretending to be disabled
@Cheryl what?!!
@Cheryl ... Anyone who goes on Jerry Springer is either unbalanced naturally or looking for validation for being "stupid".
The whole show is based on "Circus Freaks", easily exploited "Mouth-breathers", drug addicts... - generally losers who have given up.
No one with an ounce of self-respect ever appears (on stage) - they may be in the audience, but never on stage.
And it’s people like him that people with actually disabilities get screwed!
@Cheryl .... You point a finger at this guy, as if he is leading the "Poverty Parade" for pensions, disabilities, accidents - slip 'n falls - etc.
You seem to think this is something - Only- just now starting?
Getting shot in the foot, arm, leg... is the current Loser Lottery for Cops too. There are records of Cops who have shot; killed their wives, Girl Friend, mistresses, even their own - children.
Then blamed it on some "Magical Black Guy"! Cops love to say "feared for my life", "He reached for my Gun, "I was surrounded (by elementary school kids - had to shot them ...to escape)...I thought they had guns"!
seems strange that this Veteran, could fool all the reviews, case studies and medical professionals over the many many times his case has come up. Without shooting any one? ... things that make you wanna' say - huummm, ain't that strange?
Mr. MAGA had Bone spurs, 5 times for draft deferment... and still got elected POTUS?....is now sending soldiers all over the world - to protect hotels, golf club and Oil fields,belonging to dictators?
Can you spare some outrage, for the real World?
yeah he was almost as bad as the guy that was 100% blind that was caught driving
When you act sick to stay home from school
rey1jj truth
rey1jj and your home schooled
you know nothing about ms.
rey1jj vaccines they got in the military caused MS and CJD. Hes telling the truth. Go look up Whale Vaccine Racket...then look up CJD/MS/BSE on that Whale page.. you'll see what I'm talking about. In other words, Gulf War Syndrome was caused by vaccines, it wasnt caused by being over seas.
Shane Andmorestuff are you defending this bum?
What makes me angry is when people say GET A JOB so to the scammers get a JOB
I knew from the time he opened his mouth he was a complete liar... this guy should have to pay it all back and be thrown n the jail for 10 yrs...
I agree
"I'm disabled!"
"Sir, please put down the dumbbells, and remove that parachute. You're not jumping today."
Nothing To See Here lmao 🤣
He was bs but there are non movement related disabilities.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😆😂🤣
Oh god, this guy is an embarrassment to the navy.
& the white folk
Shelia Sanders What?
Shelia Sanders and the blacks that abuse the welfare system BITCH
@@plague_seeker9354 is it just me or is saying "the white folk" not much better than saying "you people" in reference to a different ethnicity?
He is an embarrassment to everyone who ever served honorably, regardless of which branch, mos, or even when we served.
This is so sad. The people who REALLY need the benefits can not receive them
And those who does get them often times don’t get enough. Also the few who is able to work a bit while receiving these benefits will often get penalized for making too much.
Like if you earn even like $100 over what you’re suppose to, they’ll penalize you by taking away some of your benefit because they thought you don’t need as much. 🤦🏻♂️
He needs another professional diagnosis because I certainly don't believe he has ms.
100% disabled means you can't do anything 100% of the time. This guys milking the system.
Fred Garvin According to Social Security guidelines, you are correct. Per the VA guidelines, you can have multiple maladies that add up to 100%. For instance, I lost a bunch of my gut and organs as a result of my service 46 years ago. Because of that, I developed kidney stones and kidney/renal problems. From all my surgeries, I got hernias and also had intestinal blockages. Don't even get me started about my back. People look at me and they can't see all my scars or obvious signs of disability. But believe me, I wish it I had never got hurt in the first place. All these physical issues could really mess a guy up mentally as well. Fortunately, I feel that I am blessed because I have a good life. Wish I could have had a family though. I really love kids.
Not really true. I know other vets who are 100% and can still work full time so long as it doesn’t aggravate your injury.
not true I am on ssi disability due to all my medical issues, I have problems that make it hard for me to work, one issues is my kidneys I go to the restroom anywhere between 10 to 14 times an hour as far as i can see that would make it hard for any one to work and that's only one issue, you don't have to be in an wheelchair to get disability
Joseph Guy you are correct I have 2 mental disabilities and I am on SSI and social security
That is not how the VA and army define 100% all 100% means is that you cannot stay gainfully employed 100% of the time. What's fucked up is that this poor bastard simply did what the doctors and VA told him what he was entitled to, then turned around and fucked him...
The ones that lost their legs deserve everything they can get
He had the gall to make the comparison is outrageous. So glad he got busted.
@@lolaboden2641 I was born without feet. Right leg is amputated below the knee. I wear prosthesis on both legs. I’ve worked my whole life. This guy is a complete tool! So insulting to people who truly suffer. I’m 60 now and I can’t do any of the things they caught him doing.
Definitely 100% all the way all the time
A leg up!
everyone injured in war deserves what they get in payouts
I would absolutely love to have served on the jury that convicted him. I am 100% service connected with M.S. and know what it's all about.
I am in a wheelchair and would love to be able to walk again. THIS GUY MAKES ME SICK!!!
You can't run a 10k and say you can't walk!
He can run. But walking? Now that’s a totally different issue. 😂
ignorant.
Maybe not right after the race
True, I am morbidly obese and can walk with regular breaks every few streets, but I find standing very hard because my lower back buckles and he's defrauding the system when others need the help it makes it harder for them to get help.
He should be doing this interview on a jail phone.
When he gets out of jail he could get elected Democrat senator.
This is why I am having so much problems with my disability! Six knee surgeries within 5 years and I still can’t retire or get disability because of people doing crap like this! Thanks Friend
Me and my dad are fighting hard for me to be on disability support pension, people like him are making it so hard for me to be trusted. Why can’t society just be honest
Because so many people have no shame.
If i tried getting away with claiming disability they would never catch me out coz I'm too lazy to do anything active
Exacly they never catch me either
sunflower 77 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
😄😄😄😄😄 hey least you been honest salute to you
@@kaisyvillatoro1149 i catch you and just take you on a candlelight dinner date😄
They watch me go to the car and grab KFC and head back home. Not even driving or holding anything because my bf does it for me lol
He was sucking money away from other soldier's and family who really needed it! He is crazy.
He isn’t crazy he is a fraud
and US everyone pays!
Social security surplus is around 2 trillion. He hasnt knocked a dent in it.
all the system has to do is continue to get doctors reports on the condition of a person a family member of mine has a disability but have to give information to the system once a year and proof from the doctor what city is that
He only took .0001% of what the government spends on the pentagon snack bar on a daily basis
I filed for disability recently and I've learned that it is very hard to get. I feel discouraged. I'd give anything to be able to be disabled (lol) like him. My life completely changed and I want to be able to do the things I used to be able to do and live my life and contribute income to our household. I'd live to have my life back and take my four year old boy places. Instead I have to wait until the weekends when my husband is off. I don't drive because of my episodes
This is insane i know so many people who did the bare minimum in the navy and they’re claiming 70-100% in disability. And they always ask me “are you going to claim for disability?” Makes me so mad.
I have MS and a spinal tap had to performed to actually diagnosis my MS. This guy is a liar. Glad he got time and has to pay back the money.
Me too! Two of them in fact with 21 oglioclonal bands and pleocytosis(sp?). Then I got one lesion and they still would not diagnose me until I got several more. How he can just tell a doctor random symptoms and get the diagnosis is BS.
爱茶Candace ha i had 20! Lol
Yeah, my MS sucks but I still work. Some days are easier and some are more difficult but I don’t whine about it. I’d like to know how he was diagnosed. Looked up some symptoms and told a shyster doctor? I was against the spinal tap until the neurologist had exhausted all other tests. It fucking hurt! This asshole should try it.
@@JeevesReturns Hope you have more easier days then harder. Best of luck to you. It angers me when someone fakes having such a serious illness just to get benefits. Destroys our faith in the govenment system
nateSFTD
Know exactly what ya mean! It’s like “well this sucks, but now at least they know”.
I'm disabled, it really angers me to see a perfectly well man doing the things I wish I could. And frauding the government.
So you are not able to do anything because your disabled? I will call you and any person out on this!!! I'm 100% disabled and to say a person can't get out and do things is hogwash. The MDs tell us to get out and do stuff because they don't want us lying in bed, because it makes pain worse if you live in pain because your brain thinks about it all the time. Ppl who lives in pain has good days and bad days, they may have 2 days of good and 5 days of bad. They may have 4 days of good and 2 weeks of bad, that is how it is. But because he "looks" healthy you are saying he's fine. Why didn't ABC News ask him to show them his medical records? See how these fake news stays with a certain narrative ? They have been doing it far too long and many of you folks are BRAIN WASHED by them. Think for yourselves for once!!!
@@whatsupdocchemdog5994 I can do things however rock climbing, jumping out of airplanes,hiking Mt.Everest,lifting 25 lbs.i cannot do. I have rheumatoid arthritis. Crippling disease,no cure. Some days I cannot walk. Some days I cannot do dishes,fold laundry. Small stuff ,opening soda cans,turning on faucets in home.Riding bike,skating,skiing,swimming. I hate it. But I will force myself to do things also but the pain is unbearable I want to die. I'm not so weak to kill myself. I stay and fight this disease. Dont ridicule me for being disabled because you faked it.
RA huh? Nothing compared to what others go through like full spine spondylosis with upper and lower radiculopathy. I'm not ridiculing you, you are judging this guy based on a news report from ABC NEWS a fake news outlet, proven over and over. See ow they only reported one side of the story, but not the other side, it's to brainwash you all. Think for yourselves. I was giving you a taste of what you did to him, you pointed your finger at him while three of your own are pointed right back at you.
Fuck the government but he a pos ima vet 100% wish i could be as socialable
Bet your not disabled.
It's impossible for Dennis Paulsen to have MS for 25 years and still be out doing all the activities he was caught doing. He could have worked all of these years!
My dad in his 20's fought the Japanese hand to hand combat in the jungles of New Guinea starved, ate monkies to survive, came home at the end of the war with malaria, went straight to work as a milkman. Died at 52, but had given us a good childhood in the 50's.,
He’s a lazy bum. He’s living better than me and I work for a living.
L Madison just what i was thinking! dude can run a 10K but he can't work???!!!! pffff
2 years in the military no combat doesn't entitle you for life
Ashley Jo My fat ass couldn't even run a 3K marathon. But I'm able to work well in a warehouse with no problem. Now how does one figure that one??
That is true L he more likey getting more money then me and one of my friend that only has one arm
80k a year for over 20yrs. fk'd up.
so you're telling me that he was receiving 80k a year for disability? WTF?! What a shame, while actual disabled vets literally die at the VA waiting for help...
ruff5050 I was just scrolling through the comments to see if anybody caught that. I thought it seemed unreasonably high myself especially considering they said he was only supposed to be getting 30% of his working pay, and I'm pretty sure homeboy wasn't clearing $250k a year. So yea, love to know how that worked. Probably doctored up that fucking paperwork too. This guy is absolutely fucking disguuuustingggggg
that is a shame about the vets. i wonder where he goes to the dr as vets can only use the va. don't understand the amount either as i truly am disabled (quadriplegia) and i get less than 12 grand a year
100% is like 37k a year. They're most likely charging him for medical expenses and any other benefits he recieved; educational, housing, home living, and so on.
Yeah, but if you get SSDI you’re lucky to get $10 grand a year. Most can’t afford to live. No vet wounded should go without care or he in the street. Men like this make it hard on all who really have issues.
Clark Kent this is strange because most here are lucky to get $10,000 US dollars and that doesn’t even cover rent if you’re single and it’s why so many disabled end up homeless. Don’t know how he got what he did when no one else can.
I’m considered “mildly” disabled, and he can do way more than I can. 100% disabled!?! This pisses me off.
Dude appearing smooth, fresh, clean-shaven, non-cluttered mind, loafing 20 years!!!
He's been lying for so long(20 years) he actually believes it...
Eric Bell exactly what I thought, he has justified it in his own mind. Delusional
He’s been lying and living it up so long that he believes his own lies
Nah he doesn't believe his own lies, he knows 100% he is lying to everyone to get benefits. He isn't delusional.
What do you mean , he's telling the truth ???
He is a liar, but liars believe their own lies……
Munchausen's
Yeah 20+ years of practice makes perfect.
(Almost)
This guy is an inspiration. The moral is to lie, cheat, and steal your way through life. Just don't get caught.
They all get caught
Ridiculous scammer.
There was a runner who was diagnosed with MS as a teenager and she ran all the way through highschool. She was expected to get worse as she aged and had to stop running. When she would hit the finish line she would tell to the ground all disoriented and they had to help cool we body down for her to come back without being disoriented.
That could be true but if you honestly going to try to make that argument for this guy you’re crazy.
As a disabled veteran im sickened by this guy. He should be thrown in jail!
Same here,and that's because I receive 100% VA. 82nd all the way
He is. 41 months behind bars
How's you could get disabled?
Axx Kxx 😂😂
People that bend the system like that makes me sick. Had paper to show I had a bad back while in the marine corps infantry and had to have surgery and I still get denied benefits for it and this makes it all up and gets full. I have to rods and 6 screws for the rest of my life and to top it off PTSD and tbi. Love the system.
hes literally laying in bed with hiking shoes on LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You know where he's going to go once the interview is over
Maria Perez no where. His ass is on house arrest. Lol
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
They're not hiking shoes.
WTF he might actually have MS but they state pretty clearly, he's getting paid for absolute loss of hands and feet when that's clearly not the case. Dude is so guilty, it's not even funny he's on house arrest the house should be arrested and he should be in jail.
It's people like this who make it hard for the rest of us. I had to fight for 7 years for mine and almost lost all of my vision waiting. Now, my brain surgery has been put off because the hospitals are full of unvaccinated Covid patients.
The way he’s acting so defensive when being shown the pictures of him being active is *proof* that he knows what he’s doing. What a sicko.
He’s got MS - massive scammer
An mri shows whether or not you have MS. And you wld have several in advanced cases. Are VA Dr's getting kickbacks$$.
Love it! 😂😂
😂😂😂
Travis Williams 🤣

He got an average of $80,000 a year, for his fake disability claim. Keep in mind that’s all tax-free.
Only because armed forces gave him 30% of his paycheck. Then what disability paid him.
What military man who is 19 years old who dropped out make $270 Grand a year
There are so many people doing this type of stuff these days. I'm retired and spent 24 years in the Marines. I know a bunch of "disabled" vets collecting a ton of money every year in benefits. These are not guys who were injured in combat. Many of them never even saw combat. But, all of them are perfectly capable to work a job. They just choose to game the system and collect VA money instead.
Despicable. So many wounded Veterans that truly are disabled and living on much less. Disrespectful to your fellow military brothers and sisters.
He keeps shaking his head "no", every time he lies!
Yep that's one of the first rules of body language interpretation. Every time someone lies to you they may be telling you yes but their head will be shaking no. You really got to pay attention to see it though.
Shout out to Doctors Phil
Whoa!!! I see that your comment is so real!!
Laziness is not a disability 🤦🏾♂️
Are you sure ?
Some people are so lazy they starve to death.
africans cant be asked to farm the most fertile land known to man, so they starve.
Lazyness is a serious disability ! and just like aids, it is funny until it gets you!
@@megsinzoa7424 I don't understand what argument you're trying to make. Laziness is not a serious disability. It may be a symptom of mental disorders such as depressions or body dysmorphic but to call it a disability, that's neither a fact nor a reason to collect money from the government that should be going towards people that actually need it.
@@brookierex4223 you ableist son of a bitch !
Ive personally seen lazyness destroy countless lifes! Far more than heroine abuse or missing limbs.
Screw your assumptions, i hope you get too see a loved one starve infront of the bread box beacuse they wanted mac donalds instead but are to lazy to go out and get some.. Or are otherwise unable to acquire said macdonalds.
@@megsinzoa7424 You're weird.
@@brookierex4223 i once saw this guy get rammed by a truck on a crossing beacuse he was to lazy to check the road before walking out onto the crossing.
Still think lazyness is not an issue?
Think again.
I know a guy just like this. I asked him if he should be ashamed of his behavior and he says why not everyone else is doing it. 😒
I actually understand what this guy is talking about. Neurological pain is something different. It's traumatic in itself and additional trauma is inflicted when you try to live and are treated this way because there's always pain but you work with that pain. You work through it. But then, there are those days that the pain is crippling. It's real.
Thank you 🙏 i work security I seen one that had the same when he got hit by a truck and survived I former bus driver told me about some guy he uses to be a bus maint. Until the accident as I seen this person everyday at bus stop until he passed away!
The "and yet, you can bungee jump" look on his face is priceless.

Right!
And play baseball with a batting average 300.

Lol I read this as soon as I heard it omg lol the look on his face there hahaha
Even if you take him at face value, there is no way he is 100% disabled.
you comment clearly shows you have alot to learn about the system in place. hope you never need it
Curt Ray sounds like something said by a recipient of more benefits than he needs...
you are correct. it is a terrible place to be and on top of it you have to go and do all this stuff you never even dreamed about doing before you get hurt. i just never thought it would be me either. to me this is a idiotic way to get fake cotton paper. no one will hire you after this happens as they feel you now know the system and it scares them. it sucks and it just sucks
Is anyone on disability 100% disabled?? No.. this is a silly statement
I'm a retired army paratrooper, I am also disabled veteran, had knee a total of 5 knee replacements because of faulty hardware and also caught a knee infection during surgery, I take pain meds, it sickens me that this con artist scammed the VA and the American people, not all disabled veterans are scammers, I salute the real disabled veterans.
Put him in prison, I am disabled and cannot get enough money to live on, a decent place to live even though I started working at 16. I would give anyone my health problems that wants them so I could work again.

@@careasl Carla keep trying. My brother-in-law had to get an attorney to get his benefits from S.S. The attorney said they routinely deny everyone except the most obvious and worst case disabled the first time they apply. Most people never try again, saving them (S.S.) money.
Unfortunately that's true....
Yes, the jurors should have ALL had MS. The relapsing/ remitting kind. Nobody truly knows anything, UNTIL they actually go through it themselves.
He’s got an excuse for everything he CAN do.
I’m disabled and he makes it so hard for the rest of us. I was approved in about 8 months and I found out I won while I was in the hospital with sepsis and renal failure. I would love to work again as I really enjoyed my job. He is an embarrassment to all who serve and to those who really are disabled. This is why it can be so hard to get approved for disability
Thank you so much for your service💗💗💗
Me too, dreaming to go back to my job.
Yet they still throw money at these liars like Strippers on a pole & people like yourself, have to suffer. So unfair!
SAME. A year and a half for me. Just got approved while In hospital with sepsis as well, in the icu. Congrats on finally getting it!
@@Nicoledolly0620 I won in January 2017 and like I mentioned I was in the hospital for sepsis and renal failure and it was during Christmas and New Years too. My 8th admission that year and that one alone was a month in the hospital. I got lucky in that I never had to see a judge and I was just approved without any issues. I got lucky. Trying to win now while people are also filing for disability due to COVID-19 must be a nightmare. I just did another stint in the hospital during Christmas yet again. Spent a week in the ICU. AGAIN. And then you have people taking advantage of the system. There are people in prison apparently getting payments for COVID a and they are in prison. I don’t even know if they even had COVID. Probably not. Infuriating
I really hope the real disabled people will not lose any supports because of the frauds
well it just so happens that most people drawing disability aren't "really disabled", a fraction of disability users actually can't work, most can but just don't want too. They need to completely stop disability 100% and make everyone re-apply immediately and put in MUCH better standards of who gets it and who doesn't. just because you don't want to work and are willing to lie out of your ass doesn't mean you get a free life paid for by everyone who actually works and isn't a complete parasite.
What if i told you there are people who dont get disability living on the fkn streets who legitimately need it but dont get it because of jerk offs like this?
True disability fraud isn't common. Originally I was on SSI with an expectation to transition to work, but my condition worsened and is now very visible. I can only imagine the shit people with invisible disabilities are going to get after this story.
I am terrified to complete my SS application thanks to these videos because I got acid refulx and IBS that haunts me mentally/physically throughout the day and have never able to have had a full time job and im 34 soon.
what if im able to work or leave the house for nearly 2 hours (like total) in a day for exercise or fun (i rarely leave the house though and it's risky etc.) does that mean any money i might get will get taken back and i got to jail? some1 help.
What a total embarrassment to all the people who are genuinely battling with this affliction
but he does have ms and is battling it
Lets hope he spends the rest of his life in PRISON!!
He believes his own lies, pathetic. He upset cause he got caught.The jury did their job. Thank goodness.
if you were stuck having to pay back 1.6 million dollars and do 41 mounth in jail wouldn't you believe your own lies to ?
i do not think he believes his own lies. look how often he shakes his head no and when
Service connected or a pathological liar
They need to take his home and get their money back from this fraud, and the rest of these frauds should pay the money back, and go to prison.
He got served 3 years and half and had to pay back 1.6 m
This awful man needs to be prosicuted. Taking money away from people who really need it. Shameful.
Stick him in prison. He is the reason that the truly disabled have a difficult time getting disability.
My Daddy. My Hero was a Marine in Vietnam! He was a "ground pounder", so he calls it. After being shot and the only survivor of his Platoon he laid against a berm bleeding and dying for 3 days before being medi vaced out. He has lived with severe PTSD and even survived Malaria while serving which has caused some neurological damage. I'm 45 and my dad is 72. When he retired from General Motors after 43 years, I urged him to seek out help from the VA. He had said for those 40 plus years that "others needed it more than him"...he is such an amazing and humble man. I said dad YOU DESERVE IT!!!
Today he is at 70% rating and although his health isn't great, he still keeps his humble attitude.
This guy is just a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of a shoe!
Nadine Miller you’re father deserves 100%. I really believe all combat Vietnam Vets do, they went through hell on earth only to return to a country where most Vietnam Vets were treated like dirt. Like your father, my Dad is a Vietnam Vet who went on to work for the same company 30 plus years. I can’t imagine holding it down while being tormented by the symptoms of PTSD.
Nadine Miller this guy in the video is “service connected” he deserves it more
Michael Chapman what are you even talking about? I NEVER name call or get aggressive with strangers on RUclips, but are you fr? She’s talking about her father who served in Vietnam. Ground troops in Vietnam lived through experiences we can’t even imagine. They were in combat, real combat constantly. They engaged in hand to hand combat. In a strange land, constant threat of being captured, google “tiger cage Vietnam”...no point in even trying to explain bc you’re obviously ignorant. This scammer did NOT deploy to combat or even border patrol. He completed Navy training, that’s IT. He didn’t even “serve” this country by covering down on a rear detachment stateside so other troops could go forward to combat. Even if he’d been deployed and diagnosed with MS, hypothetical, the military isn’t responsible for someone being diagnosed with MS. Service connected means you sustained an injury while preforming military duty. Please educate yourself before making such ridiculous statements. This scammer is an insult to every service member who has served to the best of their ability.
special ned why the hell do you have to be mean? If YOU don’t care, cool, but obviously you DO bc you stopped to comment. So you tried to go into the military and they wouldn’t accept you? Ok, got it. However this woman who posted is very proud of her fathers service as she should be. You have no idea what Vietnam Vets went through. Nobody cares? The Traveling Vietnam Wall was in my county last week and THOUSANDS of people who DO care turned out to pay their respects. It doesn’t matter if YOU care, 99.9% of Americans do. I say again, thank you to every man and woman who volunteered to go or honored the draft. Did your father or grandfather dodge the draft? Probably so. Obviously you have a problem, it stems from somewhere...you’re either a guy who couldn’t cut it in the military or family member of a draft dodger. I see you.
Ms. Nadine,
Please thank your father for his service and being the best self he can be in spite of his medical issues. He sounds like a wonderful man who I would love to sit and drink some lemonade with.
He also must have raised one hell of a daughter for you to he so proud of him. Thank you for sharing your daddy with the rest of the world and I pray for his healing and the best health he can have.
”You were dealt a bad card, and you played it for all it was worth”, that was an amazingly accurate statement right there, the reporter really nailed it :)
You do know that that is a cliche don't you??? Millions and millions of people have said those exact words. This guy didn't make that up.
I actually have MS, and would love to be as"disabled" as this guy
The pathetic part is he’s a veteran 🤦🏻♀️ I think he deliberately joined the military to take advantage of it. What a schmuck.

James R this lol
Any reference to George gets a like from me.
Lol
That is one of the best quotes from that show :)
Liar 🤥🤬
diagnosed with ms? more like bs
I was in the navy for over 20 yrs and I saw this fake shit well before 2000 (before the war). They would fake the broken leg/arm scam go to work with a strap on cast,then after work the strap comes off and partying and dancing their ass off. Then they get discharged with disability. Not picking on the gals but some of the women would join the military just to get the free babies then get out. Im glad I had some hardcore gals that worked for me would put the big kabash on that BS, they witch hunted them gals and got them booted out with nothing
I'm surprised that they didn't bring up the medical records or show them on the clips to prove this being the case. You would think he would fight it and show those medical records to prove that he does have that as a disease I'll bring up all go get tested right now I will prove to you that this is what I have
He heard wrong, it wasn't MS he was diagnosed with. The doctor said it was PMS. It's all about paying attention to the details.

LMAO😄 good one!
Jared Larsen lol
Carlos Hathcock had MS and suffered the same symptoms. He won the Wimbledon Cup on the 1000 yard shooting range and was one of the top snipers in Vietnam and also a top instructor at the USMC Scout Sniper school. All that while suffering the same symptoms as this dude.
Was he payed for having 100% disabled in his hands and feet?
My uncle and great aunt both have severe cases of MS. Sure, they have their good and bad days, but you would never see them playing physically demanding sports or running marathons even on their very best days. This guy claiming to be 100% disabled makes me so angry.
This guy is such a liar. Says that he can't use his hands, but here in the interview he's using his hands!! He should be imprisoned.
His hands seem to work well enough to cash the checks and fill the forms in to claim them.
The thing about MS is yes there are times between attacks that you maybe be symptom free but as you age neurological damage from those attacks remain and impair your abilities especially as you get older. Not only is he seemingly symptom free all the time but he shows no signs of impairment after 20 years and that is just impossible and that's exactly why people don't beleive him. Have a friend with the disease and while she has times where she is better her hands still shake between attacks because of the damage and she hasn't had it nearly as long as him. It is angering and he really should be in jail, but I guess paying it back will have to be good enough.

He can sure use his mouth!!!!!
According to the story he got 41 months.
Dude, you're making Pinocchio look like an angel.
He make Pinocchio have the Spinx's nose.
CA2SD that's a good 1 🤣🤣🤣
LOL
To answer the million dollar question in the beginning, yes it is possible to be fully disabled and have good days and bad days. I am in my 30s on dialysis, some days I am fine, others I cant get out of bed. You can never judge a book by its cover. People DON'T see me on my bad days, because I'm at home tired, sick or sleeping.... But, people DO see me out and about on my good days... so maybe from an outsider's view, I can see why someone would never suspect me being disabled. I can feel people judging me when I use my EBT card, or park in a disabled spot when I need to. People out there cheating the system make us all look bad. Not everyone with a disability needs to be old, or in a wheelchair, a walker, oxygen tank, etc.... Some of us look just like you and you only see us when we are actually physically able to leave the house 💔 just some food for thought, thanks for reading
I think they see him as malingering, he had a 30% rating to start, he must have made additional claims. Which if valid or he thinks so than that is fine, VA makes determination. He went outside VA. Got them to support his claim which can be still valid. However A few good days and shared with VA as progress as part of treatment plan they recommend because he actually has MS is one thing, but Is he compliant? Consistent? Putting in good faith effort? Giving back to VA in allowing students on rotation help? I mean really? When you have something like that it does not go away and you dont run tough mudders unless you ask.doctor I would think. You do the therapy they suggest as that is what they are there for, he must have really rubbed them wrong way. You can see the way he acts all pathetic, sad thing is alot of veterans think if they improve at all they lose their benefits as they have heard horror stories. They want you to improve your life! It makes it worth doing job when veterans do. They understand the struggle, but it's on us combat vets to work hard at being best version, goal would be to have a pool of strong healthy vets in society adding to tax base offsetting what they pay in benefits I would think.
I'm waiting for someone to say to me "you don't look disabled". I'm in congestive heart failure and more. But if they were to follow me around the store it quickly becomes notable. They've not asked. Lol maybe I do look it and refuse to acknowledge it. Hey!
How can he have MS yet hold a child on his shoulders in a pool?
Didn't look like that baseball bat slipped out of his hands. Like those bags of fertilizer. Lol
BUT..But. He has *drop foot!😢* , you guys!!😂😂😂😂😂✌💗
because the action of gripping and ripping use a COMPLETELY different subsets of muscles between the two... WOW....IVE BEEN EDUCATING ALL Y'ALL TONIGHT.... THANKS FOR THE EXERCISE....
@@passthebuckcanuck8574 It's a neurological disease, not a muscle disease. Learn from me boi!
My niece has had MS most of her life. Sometimes she can walk with crutches, a lot of times she uses her scooter. She is very debilitated. On the other hand, I have had mild MS for years. I have many symptoms often, and more severe symptoms occasionally. I never told my employers. I retired from the USAF, and deployed three times to the desert during that time. I go to the VA but never applied for disability. Since retiring I have had a civilian job. I have multiple brain lesions as shown on MRI's. When people have MS, they can become more and more disabled. Or the symptoms can come and go. This man may have mild MS but he is certainly not totally disabled.
I can relate! I push hard to continue working with MS type symptoms. It's a tough life, tough call. Maybe he didn't have the option or accommodations from his job for modified or part-time hours. I can't judge him. It's partly the systems fault too. 20+ years to figure it out?
Do you take mega doses of vitamin D?
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 no. I recently started wearing compression leggings, compression socks, and now even a long sleeve compression top for work. I've also increased my water intake (adding liquid iv from Costco), increased my dietary sodium and sit more often/take my breaks. I am more aware of my breathing and take control to deep breathe. I've also started prenatal vitamins, vitamin C, and eating less sugar. I've noticed some improvement but still have bad days. I refuse to stop working.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 50,000 units once a week
EXACTLY!! Another important point, stress flares MS, so the psychological stress of him having to "work" and the fear (unreal fear) of not being able to or failing at it, if he effs up while playing with his kids, well that's ok. But is he disabled totally? No.
I just saw this old video. I am a Gulf War Veteran who served in Southwest Asia during Operations Desert Shield/ Storm. I am currently 50% service connected. And, I refuse NOT to work. Although, my military service/ surgeries/ ailments are catching up with me. This guy is a complete fraud.
Very disgusting.
Very sad for people that really needs help.
Funny how that baseball bat never slipped from his hands...
Reporter really grilled him when he said "Why does the military owe you a life time of benefits?"
Yuri Solorzano I know right?2 years in the navy!what a joke!
Dreadful scammer.... hope he does pay it back
My husband died of Agent Orange poisoning from Vietnam. He had PTSD, COPD, congestive heart failure, diabetes, high blood pressure from age 29, neuropathy in both legs. He became totally disabled because of his military service. This clown is a disgrace and is spitting on the graves of real heros.
Even when caught red handed he still denies and plays the victim
They always do! Sad
Disabled people can be active. They should be as active as possible. But the ones that lie to get it just hurt the ones that need it. Don't know how this guy got it with a diagnosis of might have ms.
jerry sounds like he DOES have MS, just didn’t progress as quickly as he claimed. Like maybe he’s 25 or 50% disabled, not 100% as he claimed. Like they said at the end, what’s unfortunate is that as he ages he likely WILL degenerate to total disability, but may be ineligible for any further assistance thanks to lying this early in the game.
MS sometimes goes in remissions than it starts up again like a flare..and you cant do nothing...he might be good off and on
Doc: sir, you might have stage 5 cancer but we’ll have to confirm it over the next month, we won’t start treatment till then.
*patient dies*
Great way to illustrate having a probable diagnosis is a problem, and of course being a fraud with it is a even bigger issue.
Lindsay Sheffield I may believe that if they ever caught him being disabled when the doc wasn’t looking. He’s full of it. If he’s had it for 20 years it would have progressed and there would be obvious signs. It doesn’t get better with time.
would love to go back to work but due to my PTSD shes afraid i might go off if someone says or does the wrong thing hell i almost ended up in jail because of it my wife was there when it happened. plus hearing loss back problems bad knee and cornea transplants due to flash scaring.
I hope he doesn't punish his children for lying.
This man makes me sick to my stomach. This guy actually believes his own, devious lies.
His face when the bungee jumping picture came up 😧 🤣
That made me chuckle too.😆
😂😂😂😂😂
That boy was like 😦😦
Oh' God😂😂😂😂😭😭
served less then 2 years in the NAVY, gets millions in disability...
That was strange. They must've left part of the story out unless they're also counting hospital stays, medicine, doctor visits, etc. Although, I read that he was getting Social Security disability as well. Also it's quite possible his two sons were getting a check off of him so that may count into it.
thats the only reasons why americans serve...........
lol, you're hoping bad things happen to me? so you're not a piece of shit?? typical simple hypocrite bitch you are............lol
Are you kidding me? So I guess my son has been plotting to screw the government since he was 14? He was in yhe JrROTC for 4 years because he wants to help his country. Now he is a Marine as an aviation mechanic. . He doesnt have a dishonest bone in his body! So what about the millions who die? They must have been so bummed they weren't able to collect huh? That is so wrong of you to say. Many people that read the comments have REAL disabiliities and struggle their whole lives. Or they lost someone serving. It is really sad.
akui88. Fraud.
Sickening! My husband and i had to fight for 8 years using 3 different attorneys to get approved! He got 8 years back pay finally only to have Uncle Sam take 30.000 back in taxes. We were punished twice! Pisses me OFF! THIS GUYS IS A SCAMMER! HOW DO YOU RUN AND DRAW 100% DISABILITY! SHAME ON YOU!!
I had an insanely odd and major medical event. I was literally temporarily deranged and have a permanent blank spot of weeks in my memory. However, there were times I'd have appeared okay to people who didn't know me. This guy is past the point of being arguable however. It's not like once he took a few steps to grab his medication.
He had the nerves to do an interview.
LOL
😂😂
He had two independent doctors tell him that he had Ms and that is not fraud. Just because you can do things some days doesn't mean you are absolutely healthy. I have a broken back but if you look at me I look just fine I look like I can do anything but I can't lift anything over 15 lbs. This is a disgrace what they did to him.
He’s right about one thing, they should’ve had someone on the jury who had had MS. They would’ve seen right through his bullshit.
so he could taint the jury
Or anyone that worked with someone with MS
My father retired after 23 years despite having back problems. Never asked for disability. He was fine with his 50% military pension. He went to get an education from the G.I. Bill and worked until he retired at 65. I did 6 years of active duty and then another 8 years of ANG. I had a full knee replacement when I was 62 years old. Did I claim service-related VA disability for the 14 years of military service? No. I had wear and tear from hard work. The only benefit I used after my military service was the G.I. Bill for college. Never needed the VA for medical care. There are military members that need to use VA facilities and get care for real service-related injuries. This fraud isn't one of them. The military didn't give him M/S. The VA bends over backward for the military members who require care or disability. It's too bad that there are groups out there that actively teach people how to game the VA disability system.
Thank you for your service, sir
