@kivah @California currently has no system that cross checks their unemployment's system with their prison system. I think this will change very soon.

@ID2 , the innuendo was not lost.If I get your drift, @Mmsfoxxie, and I'm not sure that I do, it's as absurd as they come.
@Mmsfoxxie, just to clarify, I was agreeing with you. :-)
Thanks for clarifing that. I was SO confused.

It's come to the fore front now because so many people are unemployed now and that $3000 monthly benefit ON TOP of the regular unemployment made worthwhile for some to fleece the system. Sounds like someone enlisted those prisoners and took a cut of the benefits but with so many involved, the authorities were bound to find out about it.
It turns out that 34 states have instituted cross-check monitoring systems between their prisons and their state unemployment programs, in order to prevent (or at least hinder) fraud of the sort that occurred here. California isn't among those states The Sacramento DA announced last week that they're hopeful the scale and impact of this abuse will finally spur California legislators to act.
