The woman accused of admitting to food stamp fraud while on Judge Judy’s new TV show is headed for trial in Milwaukee.
A judge on Friday said there’s enough evidence against 41-year-old Katrina Weems that prosecutors can move ahead with a case. She’s being charged with selling her FoodShare benefits, after she admitted doing so on the ‘Judy Justice’ TV show. Weems and her friend Java’la Elam were on the show as part of another case, when they mentioned that they sold their food stamps. State investigators picked up on the case, and both women are facing felony charges, Elam skipped her court date last month, there’s now a felony warrant out for her arrest.
