A former accounts payable clerk already under investigation for embezzlement has recently been arrested once again. She is now charged with stealing more than $300,000 from her former employer.
According to an article printed in The Davidson News, the clerk was first charged with four counts of embezzlement back in February. Last week, she was arrested again when additional fraudulent transactions were discovered.
The clerk worked for a North Carolina division of Canada-based Liburdi. During her tenure, her division moved from one city to another. She is accused of stealing $292,000 from the office in Davidson, N.C., and $73,000 after the office moved Mooresville. In total, she is accused of stealing $365,000.
Police believe the clerk committed the crimes using a combination of check and credit card fraud. She faces one count of embezzlement and four counts of credit card fraud for the activities in Davidson, and four counts of felony embezzlement for the thefts in Mooresville.
