It's bad enough out there when some idiot claims to a few people that he/she served in the military, just bragging shit. But when someone uses it to advance a position, or to profit from it in any way, that's a crime of stolen valor. Also a true scumbag.
She profited on the careers of others. She claimed their valor for herself and bathed in accolades and $$ and 2 positions. Then the cancer shit just made her a double scumbag.

Justice: Woman Who Stole Valor, Posed as Cancer Patient Finally Gets What’s Coming to Her
A Rhode Island woman is paying the price for stolen valor.
Federal prosecutors announced that Sarah Jane Cavanaugh was sentenced to almost six years in federal prison in a Tuesday news release.
Cavanaugh was convicted of creating an elaborate fraud scheme in which she misrepresented herself as a U.S. Marine.
Cavanaugh never actually served in the military. She was employed by the Rhode Island Veterans Affairs Medical Center, a position which provided her access to information useful in stealing the identities of real veterans.
The fake Marine used her faux military affiliation to fund-raise $250,000 in cancer-related medical expenses — falsely claiming to have incurred the disease.
Cavanaugh used the stolen personal information of a Navy veteran who actually had cancer to advance her scheme, according to Task & Purpose.
The fraudster claimed to have been awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star in her Marine Corps career, suffering injuries from an IED in Iraq.
Cavanaugh’s fraud was so successful that she even obtained a position as commander of a local Veterans of Foreign Wars post.
Cavanaugh’s scheme began to unravel when the military charity HunterSeven announced it had been unable to find any records of her military service, according to Task & Purpose.
A retired Marine officer also noticed that Cavanaugh had claimed to be both a staff sergeant and corporal at the time of her discharge in different accounts.
The fraudster plead guilty to wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, forged military discharge certificate, and fraudulent use of military medals charges in August.
