An Indiana woman has been found guilty of embezzling more than half a million dollars from the Catholic parish where she worked as a business manager.
guilty to wire fraud after 13 years of stealing money from Saint Matthew Catholic Church and School, for which she will spend two years in federal prison.
The scheme was first uncovered in November 2021 when Carson was on leave and her temporary replacement noticed suspicious transfers from the parish account to an external bank account, the DOJ said. “For more than thirteen years, this defendant abused her position of trust to embezzle money from parishioners intended for a church and school,” said Zachary A. Myers, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana. “Her greed and desire for lavish vacations outweighed her interest in following the dictates of our criminal laws and the teachings of her church, ‘thou shalt not steal.’”
