Just got an @AP alert that #Octomom has been charged with welfare fraud. But she seemed like such a straight shooter!

From the Associated Press:
A prosecution statement says she was charged on Jan. 6 with one count of aid by misrepresentation and two counts of perjury by false application. If convicted, she faces up to five years and eight months in custody.
In addition to her octuplets, Suleman has six other children.
The sarcastic “I’m shocked” comments were tweeted almost immediately:
"I'm shocked that Octomom is accused of welfare fraud!" said no one with common sense, ever.
