KENTUCKY....
Jan Elizabeth Haynes, who worked for the state Department of Labor from October 1999 to July 2008, pleaded guilty to bank fraud while appearing in U.S. District Court in Frankfort on Tuesday. Authorities say, while Haynes delivered checks to people whose former employers had issued them to settle wage disputes, she took those without contact information, forged endorsements on about 120 checks worth a total of almost $140,000 and deposited the money into her accounts. Haynes faces up to 30 years in prison when sentenced in August.
