Las Vegas Woman Arrested for Suspected SNAP Benefits Trafficking Scheme

A Las Vegas woman, Mychelle Lay, was arrested for allegedly running a large-scale SNAP benefits trafficking scheme. She set up a fake business in December 2024, which handled hundreds of thousands of dollars in transactions by September 2025. The case began when Nevada Division of Social Services flagged suspicious benefit applications tied to Lays address. Officers found evidence of fraud during a home visit in June 2025, leading to an investigation by Nevada State Police. Lay now faces serious charges, including theft over $100,000, fraudulent acts involving public assistance, and obtaining and using another persons identifying information.
