Washington County accused of welfare fraud

A Washington County woman is accused of welfare fraud.

An investigation by the Washington County Department of Social Services determined that Wendy L. Larmon, 56, of Greenwich, failed to report income she was receiving. That resulted in her receiving $1,032 in benefits from July 2023 to Oct. 2023 to which she was not entitled, according to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.

Larmon was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny. She was issued an appearance ticket and due in Fort Edward Town Court at a later date.
