WICHITA | A Kansas nurse convicted of enslaving the mentally ill residents of the group home she ran with her husband was due back in court Tuesday to be re-sentenced.

Linda Kaufman was convicted in November 2006 of defrauding and abusing residents. Jurors found that the 66-year-old woman forced residents to work naked and perform sex acts while the government and their families were billed for “therapy.”

Kaufman was sentenced to seven years in prison. But a federal appeals court has ruled that the trial judge should reconsider factors that could mean a longer sentence.

All i can think of right now is plain abuse.  This nurse took advantage of her patients, how would she have felt if this was done to her? This is a 66 yr old woman having people work nude for her! Jeez what is happening with this world?
