OIG will continue its coverage of all 50 States and the District of Columbia by its multi-agency task forces (PSOC Task Forces) that identify, investigate, and prosecute individuals who willfully avoid payment of their child support obligations under the Child Support Recovery Act. These task forces bring together State and local law enforcement and prosecutors, United States Attorneys' Offices, the OIG, United States Marshals Service personnel, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, State and county child support personnel, and all other interested parties.
As of September 30, 2004, the task force units have received over 8,200 cases from the States. As a result of the work of the task forces, 494 Federal arrests have been executed and 458 individuals sentenced. The total ordered amount of restitution related to Federal investigations is over $22.8 million. There have been 352 arrests at the State level and 310 convictions or civil adjudications to date, resulting in over $17.3 million in restitution being ordered.

The arrests were made without incident at various locations in 25 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico by agents from the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG), U.S. Marshals Service, and state and local police. All of the defendants are either under federal indictment or the subjects of criminal complaints for willful failure to pay court-ordered child support and face maximum sentences of up to two years imprisonment plus full restitution of their overdue obligations. Authorities are actively pursuing 41 other defaulters for whom arrests warrants or summonses were issued as part of the enforcement action.
"These parents have a demonstrated ability to meet their financial responsibilities to their children, but they have consistently refused to provide the support they owe," Secretary Thompson said.
