ANDERSON COUNTY, TN (WOKI/TBI)– Special agents assigned to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s Medicaid Fraud Control Division have obtained an indictment for a Clinton woman accused of abusing a vulnerable adult in her care.
In September 2024, after receiving a referral from Adult Protective Services, TBI agents began investigating allegations of abuse involving a patient at a residential facility in Oak Ridge. During the course of the investigation, agents learned that Tara Theresa Williams (DOB: 10/16/70), who was employed as a caregiver, physically abused the patient.
Last week, the Anderson County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging Tara Theresa Williams (DOB: 10/16/70) with one count of Abuse of a Vulnerable Adult. Today, she was arrested and booked into the Anderson County Jail on a $50,000 bond.
