2010 Fraudulent Claim for 9/11 Benefits

In 2010, Spinosa claimed to have worked hundreds of hours at the landfill that processed debris from the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center from September 2001 to June 2002. In 2014, Spinosa applied for a monetary award from the U.S. Government's Victim's Compensation Fund (VCF) based on work performed in September and November of 2010.[1]

In 2014, Spinosa's application to the VCF was denied.[1]

In 2017, Spinosa was granted benefits from the World Trade Center Health Program, which paid for medical visits and prescription drugs.[1]

Spinosa actually spent that time on limited work assignment during her pregnancy or out on parental leave.[1]
