Greenbelt, Maryland – A Maryland man received a federal-prison term, today, stemming from a social-security disability benefits scam. U.S. District Judge Lydia K. Griggsby sentenced Andrew Langford, 50, of Ft. Washington, to eight months in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for wire fraud in connection with the scheme. U.S. Social Security Administration records show that from January 2014 through May 2021, Langford received more than $270,000 in disability benefits that he was not entitled to.
