US Labor Department: Indiana paid $100M in unemployment overpayments

Hundreds of complaints have been sent to I-Team 8 about the tactics used by the Indiana Department of Workforce Development to recover unemployment overpayments.  
Paul Dowdy, of Indianapolis, lost his job when the state shut down. He collected unemployment, and now the state wants the money back.
“In excess of $14,000. I want to say almost $17,000, but definitely $14,000,” said Dowdy.  
The United States Department of Labor data indicates that Indiana has recovered $26 million so far. What this data doesn’t show is exactly how many people have been forced to pay money back.  
Compared to surrounding states, Indiana is one of the most aggressive collectors of overpaid unemployment insurance.
