South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson announced that his office’s Vulnerable Adults and Medicaid Provider Fraud unit (VAMPF) and the Department of Public Health’s Bureau of Drug Control have arrested Erin Homan, 34 years old, of Murrells Inlet, S.C., on two counts of Exploitation of a Vulnerable Adult, and two counts of Theft of a Controlled Substance, First Offense. Homan was booked into the J. Reuben Long Detention Center on March 18, 2025. These charges stem from Homan’s conduct while employed as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) at Angel Oak Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Myrtle Beach on October 23, 2024. Investigators from VAMPF and the DPH Bureau of Drug Control allege that Homan, while performing her duties as an LPN, stole a quantity of Tramadol, a schedule IV controlled substance, belonging to two residents of the facility. It is further alleged that Homan unlawfully obtained the Tramadol for her own personal use and deprived the two vulnerable adult residents of their prescribed medication.
