Coates pled guilty to one count
charging him with theft of food stamps.
As part of his plea, he agreed to forfeit
to the government his 1987 Mercedes-
Benz automobile, stocks, and the pro­
ceeds from the sale o f his store.
An Office of Inspector General in­
vestigation disclosed that Coated pur­
chased food stamps for 65 to 85 percent
of their value and subsequently redeemed
them for the full face value. Over a 17-
month period, he redeemed $ 1,682,711
in food stamps, while his legitimate
food stamp sales during the period to­
taled less than $400,000.
Food stamps may only be used to
purchase eligible food items at stores
authorized to participate in the Food
Stamp Program. It is illegal to exchange
them for cash or other non-food items.
The case was prosecuted by A ssis­
