A Louisiana woman is being accused of fraud by investigators who say she was running a multi-million-dollar empire involving several companies and bought a $100,000 Lamborghini but still claimed – and took – Medicaid benefits.
A report from Fox News explains Candace Taylor, 35, from Slidell, is facing felony counts, accused by Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill’s office of fraudulently taking Medicaid benefits.

“According to arrest records, the investigation began with a complaint from the Louisiana Department of Health alleging Taylor committed Medicaid recipient fraud by underreporting her income to qualify for benefits,” the report explained.
She allegedly applied for Medicaid in 2018 under an alias, but was denied benefits. Then months later, she reapplied using the same alias but different information.
In 2024, two months after purchasing the Lamborghini, Taylor allegedly reapplied for Medicaid benefits — this time reporting a $2,000 monthly income and failing to disclose her ownership of any businesses, the report said.
But on Facebook, investigators found posts showcasing her luxury lifestyle.
A report from WVUE said in 2020 alone nearly $481,000 was deposited into her accounts.
