Eric Conn of Floyd County was sentenced in absentia Friday to 12 years in prison and ordered to pay nearly $170 million in restitution.
Conn, who was convicted of defrauding the government out of $550 million in Social Security disability payments, fled last month from Lexington, and the FBI says it has obtained surveillance video showing him at the store and station. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/07/15/fbi-fugitive-lawyer-eric-conn-convicted-social-security-fraud-has-been-spotted-new-mexico/481599001/
