A Russellville woman has been charged with four felonies after authorities claim she fraudulently obtained $13,414 in SNAP benefits during a six-year period.
Jenyfer Todd was charged Thursday in Cole County with stealing more than $750, two counts of falsifying false documents and one count of unlawfully receiving public assistance. A $5,000 warrant was issued on Thursday. She was not listed on the Cole County Jail roster on Thursday evening.
The probable cause statement says Todd submitted six SNAP applications from July 2018-March 2024. The statement says Todd did not state on her applications that she lived with the father of her children, nor did she declare his income.
Court documents also alleged she declared one of her children was a household member when the youth was in state custody for about six months.
