ANDOVER TOWNSHIP, NJ — An ex-owner of a Sussex County nursing home where bodies were stacked in a makeshift morgue after COVID swept through it, is being sought in Arkansas for tax evasion and a $3.6 million Medicaid fraud.
That investigation has raised questions in New Jersey about the status of a state investigation into the Andover Subacute facilities, now known as Limecrest Subacute and Rehabilitation Center and Woodland Behavioral and Nursing Center, where Joseph Schwartz, who owns Skyline nursing homes, is linked to the ownership.
NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt aired a segment in November about what happened at the Andover Subacute facilities during the pandemic below, interviewing a former employee who spoke for the first time about what happened on Easter weekend in April 2020, when the morgue became so packed, one body was placed in a storage shed.
