A Rockford woman pleads guilty to stealing social security benefits.
Joan Jarrett, 61, got about more than $79,000 illegally. Investigators say she applied for supplemental security income benefits in 1990 because she wasn't living with her husband at the time.
Even though they started living together again the next year, Jarrett got the benefits until 2005. Jarrett even admitted to lying to the Social Security Administration about living with her husband.
She has to pay the money back and could get as much as 10 years in prison.
