A couple has been charged with stealing nearly $2,000 from a central Pennsylvania jail by using a routing number from a check the female suspect got from the jail after her release last year. Police said a 61-year-old man and his 51-year-old wife used the routing number to use the Blair County jail account to pay their utility bills. They also allegedly transferred $179 to the man’s bank account. The woman got the routing number when she received a check for $6.95 to reimburse her for money remaining in her inmate expense account after her release on theft charges in October. The couple pleaded not guilty and face a preliminary hearing on July 13th.
