A woman who cared for Bobbi Kristina Brown while she was in hospice care is facing serious charges of impersonating a nurse.

A report says, Taiwo Sobamowo, a woman who was in charge of caring for Bobbi Kristina, was found to be impersonating a caregiver. The report does not mention how Sobamowo’s care may have been affected by Bobbi Kristina during her ill fated stay. The case is now being investigated by police in Duluth, Ga.

Police say Sobamowo, in charge of Bobbi Kristina Brown's care at the hospice where she died, was impersonating a nurse and faces charges that include identity fraud and nursing without a license. A Duluth police report obtained Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2015, by The Associated Press states that detectives have documents showing Sobamowo cared for Brown at Peachtree Christian Hospice outside Atlanta.

The case against Sobamowo began in September after investigators received a tip that raised questions about her. She is currently facing charges of first-degree forgery, identity fraud and practicing without a license in Forsyth County, Ga., while being held in a Raleigh, N.C., jail on a charge of being a fugitive from another state. According to Forsyth County sheriff’s Detective Cpl. Jeffrey Roe, Sobamowo had stolen a state-issued RN number off a real nurse from Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. Sobamowo’s employment records show that she attended a medical college in Washington, D.C., though there is no confirmation of whether she actually did. h/t wareham.wickedlocal.com

Brown died on July 26 in hospice care after being found unconscious and unresponsive six months earlier. The circumstances surrounding her death are also being investigated by Georgia police.
