They caught one in a row; 250,000 remaining.

She is very qualified to be in charge of utility payments at any small city.

Always good to see a welfare queen get punished!

For ever one caught-hundreds continue to defraud and steal with impunity-

Fantastic -- now go get the rest of the crooks!

This welfare fraud scandal is what everyone will be talking about at the USM Volleyball gym!

Food stamp fraud - a deep south tradition.

All the while DHS is helping protect the former Governor while also trying to silence former staffers.

Bright future as a band booster mom.

It ain’t welfare fraud unless you get caught.

Possibly many thousands of MS workers paid in cash, in whole or in part, such as day laborers, restaurant and bar workers, maids, yard maintenance crews, shade tree mechanics, handymen, landscape laborers, etc., procure EBT benefits by not declaring all their income.

You got to dig a little deeper
You ain't dug near far enough

There is a downside to that lifestyle. These same people can’t utilize credit because they can’t prove income. But there is an entire industry of predatory buy-here-pay-here and no credit financing retailers who exist to serve these markets.

so the state hands out thousand s of dollars to people like the defendant here, then the state spends thousands for a office to catch the fraudster and attempt to recoup the money and the taxpayers foot the bill.

doesn't sound like a very good business model

Roll tide!

Why don't they get serious and really crack down on the fraud, the selling of cards for cash for pennies on the dollar and the people posting video's of themselves bragging about 3k a month in "food stamps".

The system is broken. There should be a work requirement attached to receipt of benefits. PERIOD

I heard a young lady in the grocery store complaining that they only give her $1100.00 a month on her EBT and she has used it all in 2 weeks. I almost fell out....how is this possible. I do not know how many people she feeds but that is a lot of money (groceries).

Well we do have the 3rd highest grocery prices.....

Truth be known, without folks committing welfare, Medicaid and disability fraud, Mississippi’s economy would fold like a cheap suit in the Delta heat.

When are they going to arrest Deputy Phil and Brett and others?

Anderson and Griffith are full of crap. If they were competent and had strong controls in place this would have never happened as long as it did. The strong controls he’s referring to are probably that she pissed off a family member or guy she was with who called into the MDHS fraud tip line and reported her. That’s their ‘strong controls.’ Deadbeats telling on other deadbeats for nothing more than the mere satisfaction of revenge.

@2:58 PM - You must not do the grocery shopping for your household. I am single and spend more than $1,000/month on groceries. Food right now is crazy expensive thanks to Bidenomics.

the mississippi EBT card, the politically correct current name for food stamps, is a yellow, trimmed with blue plastic card which looks just like a credit card from a distance.

this is so the recipients won't have to suffer the 'indignity' and the 'stigma' of having to whip out old fashioned food stamps.

while you are standing in line waiting to pay for your groceries with your hard earned money flash a glance at the color of the cards you see being fed into the machines.

you will see alot of yellow cards.

and smiling faces

why not?


if i got all freed be smiling too.

If food stamps were completely cut out, food prices would plummet by as much as 50% for working cash paying customers. Think about that.
