Charlie CondonA Message from Attorney General Charlie Condon:

"For too long, there has been no real investigation or prosecution of Medicaid fraud on the state level. Those days are over. All providers, no matter how big or small, should take notice that my office intends to aggressively pursue those who file false claims to collect Medicaid money. The FBI estimates that 10 cents of each dollar spent on Medicaid is lost to fraud or abuse. In South Carolina we intend to get that number down to zero."


Victim Assistance

South Carolina became a leader in victim advocacy by establishing the first victim assistance program in the nation. Under the leadership of Attorney General Charlie Condon, the state offers information and support to victims and their families as cases make their way through the criminal justice system. We hope the following information will help you to understand the complex judicial process.
