From the Associated Press on 10/29/2014:
The former finance director for Maine's Passamaquoddy (pass-uh-muh-KWAH'-dee) Tribe has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for embezzling about $20,000 from the tribe.
Charles Fourcloud was also sentenced Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Bangor to three years of probation and ordered to pay full restitution.
The 59-year-old Fourcloud had pleaded guilty in June.
Authorities say he submitted false expense claims to steal the money.
Fourcloud was fired as finance director of the Passamaquoddy's Pleasant Point reservation government in September 2013 for lying about his identity.
Authorities say Fourcloud's real name is Arlynn Knudsen, and he was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison in 1998 after pleading guilty to his role in the embezzlement of nearly $2.7 million from Oglala Lakota College in South Dakota.
