Hartford Courant ^

Nine more state employees are suspected of filing "false and misleading" applications for post-Irene food stamps, the governor's office announced Monday.

This brings to 24 the total number of employees under suspicion of fraud in the emergency food stamp program known as D-SNAP.

The 15 already announced have been notified of the dates of their individual disciplinary hearings, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said in a statement.

The administration has not publicly announced the identities of the employees. Monday's announcement said "several agencies" were notified of the latest names to surface.

Sunday night, The Courant's Dave Altimari reported that a 13-year state trooper who earned more than $124,000 last year was among four troopers under investigation for allegedly filing a fraudulent food stamp application after Tropical Storm Irene, which hit the state Aug. 28.

In a statement Monday, Malloy reiterated his call for state employees to report fraud, which he said can be done anonymously.
