DAYTON, OH – Angela Green, a former Chief Financial Officer, is headed to federal prison after admitting to a brazen scheme to steal over $150,000 from two Dayton-area businesses. U.S. District Judge Walter H. Rice handed down the sentence yesterday, bringing a close to a case investigated by the U.S. Secret Service.
Court documents reveal Green’s double-dealing began in May 2017 while working as a bookkeeper for an unnamed Dayton company. She allegedly manipulated the system, processing fraudulent credit card returns without any legitimate purchases to back them up. The ill-gotten gains were then funneled into bank accounts belonging to Green and her family members – a clear pattern of exploiting her position for personal enrichment.

But Green wasn’t stopping there. From April 2017 to March 2018, she simultaneously served as the Chief Financial Officer for a second Dayton-area business. Here, she upped the ante, directly transferring funds from the company’s credit union into accounts she controlled, again utilizing family members as shields. To further conceal her tracks, Green falsely listed other individuals and entities as the payees, attempting to create a paper trail of deception.
The total haul from Green’s fraudulent activities exceeded $150,000. Federal prosecutors, Assistant United States Attorneys Andrew J. Hunt and SaMee Harden, successfully demonstrated the scope of the fraud, leading to Green’s guilty plea in August 2018 on two counts of wire fraud. The sentence includes an order to pay approximately $173,000 in restitution to the victim companies – though whether that fully covers the damage remains to be seen.
U.S. Attorney Benjamin C. Glassman praised the Secret Service’s investigative work, highlighting the agency’s commitment to tackling financial crimes. While the Secret Service is often associated with protecting dignitaries, this case underscores their vital role in safeguarding the financial integrity of businesses and individuals from predatory criminals like Green.
The case serves as a stark reminder that even those in positions of trust are not above the law. Green’s actions demonstrate a callous disregard for the businesses she was entrusted to manage, and her sentence reflects the severity of her crimes. The Southern District of Ohio continues to pursue financial fraud cases aggressively, sending a message that such behavior will not be tolerated.
