Alexis Muniz of Accord, N.Y., was sentenced to three years' probation after a Facebook post led to her arrest.
The 28-year-old was arrested after investigators discovered a post on her Facebook page in which she boasted about her salary as an apartment complex manager while she was accepting workers' comp. payments from her previous job.
