Original Note:
Seattle Times columnist Danny Westneat states that the cause of the mistake is unknown. Johnson received SS checks in Nov, Dec and Jan on schedule. In Feb, after DOGE gained access to SS databases, his bank clawed back $5100 in SS payments due to an erroneous death date in Nov. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/heres-a-dead-person-on-social-security-in-seattle-with-plenty-to-say/
