Carmen Ascencio, 37, of Rancho Cucamonga, California, was arrested this week on suspicion she embezzled more than $720,000 from Corrections Canteen, a division of the Compass Group, where she had been employed as branch manager.

Authorities believe that over a five year period, from January 2005 and February 2010, Ascensio caused the accounting system to issue herself extra checks and then made false entries into the system.
