Receiving benefits he was not entitled to, one Florida resident could be staring at more than a decade behind bars.
According to the Florida Department of Financial Services, James “Mike” Millard was recently arrested for workers compensation fraud.
An investigation by the agency discovered that Millard reportedly obtained more than $20,000 in benefits from Dec. 9, 2012 through Feb. 7, 2014, when he filed numerous reports claiming he had no earnable income.
After an investigation began, it was discovered that Millard was in fact employed and compensated by a concrete construction business during this time period.
Millard was facing a second degree felony charge that could lead to a maximum of 15 years behind bars.
