Joplin River of Life Ministries, which operates the Anderson Guest House and other local care centers, has a history of rocky leadership and deficiencies in state inspections. The group's founder, Robert Joseph DuPont Jr., was sentenced to federal prison in 2003 for his part in a Medicaid fraud scheme. As the owner of a Joplin home health care facility, DuPont directed patients to handpicked doctors who falsely certified that the patients required residential health services, federal authorities said.
