Phoenix police arrested a 28-year-old woman whom Phoenix Children’s Hospital reported that she was bringing child for unnecessary medical procedures.
Phoenix police say they arrested a woman on suspicion that she defrauded people into donating on false claims that her child had brain cancer.
The hospital estimated the couple had raised $13,000 on GoFundMe and were collecting donations on other platforms including Cash App, Venmo and Linktree. Phoenix police detectives and officers with the Department of Child Safety confronted Coria on Oct. 13 at her home about the allegations. Coria called detectives later that day and told them she had withdrawn the remaining money and gave it to her godmother for safekeeping.
He said he himself never asked for the money, but that the two spent the donation money to buy a car along with paying for rent, clothes, food, toys, TV and medication.
