Seven ‘public servants’ indicted for Food Stamp fraud
American Thinker ^

Posted on 06/23/2016 5:33:27 AM PDT by detective

It made barely a ripple in the national last week when initially reported, but 5 state workers in Delaware were indicted for Food Stamp fraud totaling nearly a million dollars. An official statement from the Delaware state government reported on June 14:

Attorney General Matt Denn announced today the arrests and indictments of seven former state of Delaware employees for theft of federal money. All seven were employed by the Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS), and were responsible for issuing Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards, and three previous arrests were also related to the same investigation.

Two of the defendants were indicted and arrested last week, two others were indicted and remain at large, one was indicted and arrested previously and still faces charges, and two have already been convicted and sentenced.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Fraud is endemic in these programs.

I saw that two already convicted have to pay restitution. Does it every really get paid back?

Ok, the first two convicted got probation / Community service and restitution that will probably never get repaid. The big question, did they lose their jobs?

None of these things is not like the others. I'll bet every one of them voted for the current turd in the white hut (at least twice)

TIP of the ice berg, I tell you... TIP of the ice berg. I was in a flat in New Jersey, with 8 illegal aliens, and they bragged that they had multiple ID and went and got food stamps under different alias.... tell you this is the truth.

I’m sorry, but we are going to have to start hanging thieves.

There are too many of them and they aren’t afraid of going to prison.
