A Memphis woman has been arrested following an investigation by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s Medicaid Fraud Control Division.

TBI agents began looking into allegations against Shanda Michele Jackson, 47, after a referral from Adult Protective Services on September 3. Investigators determined Jackson, who was working as a caregiver, became involved in a physical altercation with a TennCare recipient under her care.

On September 9, TBI agents, with help from the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office, arrested Jackson on a charge of Abuse of a Vulnerable Adult. She was booked into the Shelby County Jail and later released on a $5,000 bond.
