Virginia Woman Charged With Welfare Fraud For Collecting Benefits While Husband Earned Millions


An Arlington woman was arrested this week and charged with four counts of welfare fraud for collecting over $100,000 in benefits – all while her husband was a high-earning attorney in D.C., police say.

Police say a six-month investigation into Helen Agbapuruonwu, 41, found that the mother of four had collected benefits like food stamps and Medicaid assistance for the past six years.

While Helen was collecting benefits, her husband, Fidelis Agbapuruonwu, was earning $1.5 million per year as a lawyer, according to court documents obtained by News4.

In 2001, Fidelis received the prestigious Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship which helped pay his way through law school.

Fidelis’ LinkedIn page claims he works for the D.C. firm of Mayer Brown, but today the firm said he no longer works there. Court officials believe Fidelis, a Nigerian immigrant, has “fled the country and is somewhere in Africa.”

      That's because the person you are reporting them to is their cousin/aunt/uncle/brother from another mother.

    Say it ain't so....I fault the agency that let this happen as much as the defendant. Both are ignorant.

    Yeah, the people that dole out the benefits in the agencies want to keep their jobs, so they just keep giving and giving.
