A Huntsville woman has to repay Tennessee for stolen medical services, pharmacy services and food stamps.

30-year-old Shauntaye Mayo pleaded guilty to three counts of TennCare fraud, one count of theft of services and one count of food stamp fraud.

Mayo's mother and aunt were both charged with TennCare fraud for helping Mayo.
