Three State Prison Guards Indicted for Inflating Overtime Reports

Three Arizona Department of Corrections detention officers have been indicted on fraud charges following a long investigation that showed they had cheated on pay sheets, says the Maricopa County Attorney's office.
Evan Vincelli, 28, Sonja Schroeder, 26, and Joseph Constantino, 38, stand accused of stealing a total of $56,000 in 2006 by falsifying overtime reports and stating they were at work when they were not.
It sounds like the trio is alleged to have fudged a little here and a little there. But it added up to quite a bit more on their paychecks, at taxpayer expense.
We would bet this case is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to DOC overtime fraud, with most cases the fudging is too minimal to notice.
