Butler was arrested on Thursday, June 11, following an investigation conducted by the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, the Department of Social Services, and the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office.
According to investigators, Butler allegedly received SNAP benefits exceeding $50,000 over an extended period between August 2022 and June 2026, despite failing to declare all individuals residing in her home and her jobs and earnings.

She is scheduled to face court proceedings and is being detained in the City of Amsterdam Court until her arraignment.
