YORK, SC Seven Rock Hill women who received food stamps pleaded guilty Thursday to more than $20,000 in food stamp fraud at a Rock Hill store. Three of the store owners now face up to five years in prison for a $5 million food stamp trafficking scheme.

All who pleaded guilty Thursday in state court in York have to pay the money back to avoid jail time and probation.

The seven who pleaded guilty Thursday are: Kimberly Johnson, 28, $2,195 in fraud; Victoria Sanders, 25, $2,234; Dequitta White, 31, $3,070; Jatonica Williams, 31, $5,238; Brooke Rogers, 27, $2,134; Shanisa Davis, 36, $2,549; and Labrecia White, 24, $2,962.

Johnson pleaded guilty by herself. The other six pled in two groups of three.

I am confused. How does $20K in fraud make a $5M scam? Lock’em in irons, but the title is confusing.

WTF? Maybe they should start treating it like the crime it is.

5 million is but a grain of sand on the beach compared to the total amount being defrauded...

The whole system is rift with fraud.

Layers of layers of benefit programs are being abused in the billions...

I know that's what it said. So where is the other $4,980,000 ? Are there thousands more to be convicted at 2 or 3 thousand each? The article does not say, so my question is still standing.

So you can steal thousands of dollars from the government but if you pay it back all is okay? Is that South Carolina law?

Why are they in state court? Food stamp money is federal.
