Chautauqua County Couple Admits to
Stealing Benefits from Government
A husband and wife from Westfield have pleaded guilty to misusing a Social Security number to illegally collect disability benefits from two federal programs.
65-year-old Harold Spearback and 56-year-old Allene Spearback are both charged with theft of government property.
The US Attorneys office says Harold Spearbak illegally used his wife’s Social Security number to collect disability benefits from the Social Security Administration and the Department of Veterans Affairs while he was working as a truck driver.
They say Spearback collected nearly $120,000 that he was not legally entitled to receive.
Agents from Veterans Affairs, Secret Service and the Social Security Administration investigated.
