Fraud In Missouri

From the Oberly, Missouri Monitor-Index:
Donald and Mary Hicks of Macon have been indicted on charges involving the theft of $86,534 of Social Security Disability benefits from a couple in their care says United States Attorney Catherine L. Hanaway and Macon Police Chief Steve Olinger.

According to the indictment, in September 1998, Donald Hicks was selected as a representative payee by the Social Security Administration for a disabled couple who were recipients of Social Security Disability benefits.

The indictment alleges that between September 1998 and continuing through February 2006, Donald Hicks endorsed their checks and the money was stolen by Donald and Mary Hicks.
