Hedberg was sentenced on two elder-fraud felonies in St. George.

A sentence after the admitted offenses is the court's judgment. It is not a new charge. Gage Wallace Hedberg, 32, of Hurricane, Utah, was sentenced in 5th District Court in St. George before District Judge Jack Burns on two second-degree felonies, financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult and unlawful dealing of property by a fiduciary. The judge suspended two prison terms of 1 to 15 years and ordered 30 days in the Washington County Purgatory Correctional Facility plus 36 months of supervised probation.

St. George News reported the Sept. 22, 2026 sentencing. Prosecutors said Hedberg drained more than $127,000 from an elderly client while he was the client's caregiver. The Utah Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit investigated. Hedberg owned Like Family Personal Care, began nonmedical care in November 2022, and obtained power of attorney in June 2023. Those are the facts prosecutors and the reporting described. They are the conduct behind the judgment.

District Judge Jack Burns suspended two prison terms of 1 to 15 years on the two second-degree felonies. He ordered 30 days in the Washington County Purgatory Correctional Facility and 36 months of supervised probation through Adult Probation and Parole. A suspended prison range is not time the court imposed as the active term. The judgment is the 30 days and the 36 months of supervision on the offenses he admitted.
