State Patrol now runs fraud victim fund

The Nebraska State Patrol now runs the Financial Fraud Victims’ Reimbursement Fund. Victims, including individuals and financial institutions, can apply if they lost money to a financial transaction offense. The Patrol sets the form, verifies losses, and decides how much to pay. Money comes only from funds forfeited from the same offense, and payments are split if the fund is short. Deposits stay in the fund for at least 36 months to handle claims filed in that window. After that, any leftover money goes to the State Treasurer for distribution under the Nebraska Constitution.
