How many others out their still cashing checks for dead people. This could have been prevented if the welfare agency had a tickler file to follow up on receipents. She need to pay it all back to taxpayers and spend a few years in jail as an example of people who abuse the system.

Politicians just mad because that's money they couldn't get their grubby little hands on.

7:56 Why don't you get a bunch of shoe boxes and a case of index cards so you can go show the government how to set up a tickler file. I bet you can find their number in the phone book and you should add it to your rolodex while you have it in hand. LMAO!
