A Butler woman was sentenced in federal court in Pittsburgh to 30 months’ probation, 150 hours of community service, and a $1,000 fine on her conviction of theft of government funds, according to U.S. Attorney Cindy K. Chung.

Chief U.S. District Judge Mark R. Hornak sentenced Amy Lynn Snow, 54, on Wednesday.

From August 2013 through September 2017, Snow falsely reported to the Social Security Administration that her spouse was not a member of her household knowing that his status as a member of the household and his income would affect her entitlement to Social Security Income benefits.

The amount of loss by the Social Security Administration through Snow’s theft was $45,422.61, Chung said.

As part of the sentence imposed, Hornak ordered the defendant to pay full restitution in the amount of $45,422.61 to the Social Security Administration.
