DOZENS OF PA. RESIDENTS CHARGED IN ASSISTANCE FRAUD CASES

Some 52 people could spend up to seven years in prison and be fined 15-thousand-dollars for public assistance fraud in Pennsylvania.  The Office of the State Inspector General says they robbed the state of nearly 350-thousand-dollars in SNAP, Cash Assistance or Subsidized Day Care funds that they weren’t entitled to.  All but three of the defendants have been charged with felonies in the case.
