Ex County official sentenced for stealing state dollars

A former Warren County official will serve four years in prison for stealing thousands of dollars from the state.  Rebecca Green pleaded guilty to charges of theft in office and tampering with records for stealing cash payments from Medicaid recipients. Prosecutors say she altered their records to make it appear they were eligible for benefits.
