Woman gets prison over Irving teachers ID theft
Posted on February 25th, 2010 No commentsDALLAS — A Bedford woman apologized as she was sentenced to 34 years in prison in an identity theft scam targeting educators in Irving.
Sharon Denise Seeley pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 30 years for fraudulent use or possession of identifying information. She was sentenced to two years on each of two counts of credit card abuse.
The 40-year-old woman will serve the sentences concurrently.
About a dozen victims were in court Thursday. Several testified about how ID theft had destroyed their credit ratings and left their lives in turmoil.
Thieves were blamed for getting the data of more than 3,000 Irving teachers and other district employees from an old benefits report. Seeley, who was arrested in 2009 at a mall, says the information she used came from a binder thrown in a trash bin.

Business Associates Can Pay Directly For Breaches
Posted on February 23rd, 2010 No commentsBusiness associates can be directly liable for a breach of unsecure protected health information (PHI) and could have to pay OCR directly, a top OCR official told HealthLeaders Media at the 18th Annual National HIPAA Summit Wednesday afternoon.
HealthLeaders Media asked Sue McAndrew, deputy director for Health Information Privacy for OCR, if a business associate could end up paying out of its own pocket for a breach.
The answer is yes.
“Business associates going forward will be directly liable for violations that occur in their possession,” McAndrew said. “The fines would be imposed upon the BA, and if they can’t pay, we send them to jail.”
McAndrew laughed at the line about “jail,” and said it was in jest.
However, she went on to say OCR would consider waiving—or decreasing—some of the penalties after an assessment of the financial state of a violating hospital. She also said that the “settlement door is always open.”
On Wednesday, McAndrews also released breach numbers for the month of January:
- As of January 2010, there have been 35 reports of breaches affecting 500-plus individuals, resulting in 712,000 notices.
- Most of the reports were ePHI contained in lost or stolen unencrypted media or portable device.
- There were more than 300 reports of smaller breaches.
- Most of the paper records were sent to wrong fax numbers, wrong addresses, and wrong individuals.
