Caught with her hand in the cookie jar

I recently read where an employee of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention got caught stealing from the agency to have $10,000 worth of liposuction performed.  

Ms. Jamilah Franklin also wrote $15,000 in “convenience” checks for herself and friends for various things such as rent.  She was placed on 3 years probation and ordered to repay $25,177.00 in restitution.  She now is a “former” employee.  

With all the new enrollees in the food stamp program, more fraud is occurring.  I had a phone call from a lady who wanted to pay for her tummy tuck in Fort Myers with food stamp vouchers!  Unfortunately the bigger government gets, the more opportunities for waste, fraud and corruption.
