Its disgraceful what she's done. How come she isn't in jail yet?
Because the company lied and more than doubled the amount she took so they could benefit from the insurance company. They are the crooks as well and should be brought up on charges. Very poor management there.
No matter the amount it's STILL a felony & Leonhardt should do time. It's also a federal offense i believe with forging checks as it now involves the FDIC laws. Has any sentence been rendered as of yet?
