Robert Gonzalez, 36, of Lake Mary, Florida, has pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $900,000 from Comstock Images Inc. of Mountainside, New Jersey, where he had been employed as the head of information technology. Specifically, Gonzalez plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and wire fraud and two counts of tax evasion. According to prosecutors, Gonzalez schemed with the company's former CFO, Geraldine Manuel, of Westwood, New Jersey, in a phony expense report scheme. Manuel has been separately indicted.

The two split the proceeds. The thefts started in 2002 and went on until 2004.
