Octomom News: Nadya Suleman Hit With Additional Welfare Fraud Charges, Prosecutors Say Mother of 14 Received $10,000 Medical Benefits Illegally

Nadya Suleman, better known by her moniker "Octomom," has been hit with new welfare fraud charges, adding to previous accusations that she lied on applications for government assistance.

Suleman, who famously gave birth to eight children in one day, has been accused of failing to report earnings totaling to almost $30,000 in 2013. But prosecutors tacked an additional charge on Wednesday, alleging the Lancaster, Calif. resident received almost $10,000 in MediCal benefits illegally, according to the Los Angeles County District attorney's office.

CNN reported Suleman pleaded guilty to the initial three welfare charges against her, and will appear in court on March 11 for the new allegations.

District attorney officials said they're seeking restitution for about $26,000 in total.

The 38-year-old mother of 14, who collected food stamps for her children, reportedly left out claims on earnings she made doing cameos, appearances and television spots, Deputy Dist. Atty. William Clark wrote in the original complaint.

Suleman, who was on a government program when she gave birth to her children via in vitro fertilization, allegedly received $16,481 in welfare money from January to July of 2013. That included $9,814 from the CalFresh food program and $6,667 from the CalWorks financial aid program, the Times reported.

If she's found guilty, Suleman could spend up to five years in jail.
