WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WDEF) – On September 5, 2025, Elizabeth Rainwater, a former nurse charged with impersonating a licensed professional and fraudulently obtaining a controlled substance, was arrested and booked into the Williamson County Jail on a $40,000 bond.
On November 15, 2024, special agents, acting on a tip from the Tennessee Department of Health, began investigating Elizabeth Rainwater.
According to the TBI, during the investigation, agents learned in August 2024, Rainwater surrendered her Registered Nurse license as part of a plea deal but continued working as a nurse at a nursing home in Franklin until September 10th.
