TOPEKA, KAN. – Deborah A. Bomia, 46, Enterprise, Kan., has been sentenced to two years probation for embezzling $85,000 from Enterprise Credit Union, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said today.
Bomia was also ordered to pay $85,000 in restitution for the crime, which occurred from April 30, 2005, to Aug. 8, 2011.
Bomia pleaded guilty to one count of embezzlement and admitted to kiting checks between accounts in her name at Enterprise Credit Union, creating false and fictitious balances.
The embezzlement involved making a large deposit toward the end of the month, which would be included in the general ledger, but the actual deposit would not be sent to the corporate checking account until around the middle of the next month. At the same time, another larger check would be drafted out of Bomia’s credit union checking account.
The final deposit to the general ledger was recorded on July 29, 2011, in the amount of $85,000. The money was never deposited to the credit union’s corporate account, resulting in a significant loss for Enterprise Credit Union.
U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom commended the FBI and Assistant U.S. Attorneys Rich Hathaway and Christine Kenney for their work on the case.
Enterprise Credit Union is a financial institution that serves the community in Enterprise, Kansas. The credit union is committed to providing excellent service to its members and upholding the highest standards of integrity and honesty.
The sentencing of Deborah A. Bomia serves as a reminder of the consequences of embezzlement and the importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of the public.
Bomia’s case is a reminder that embezzlement is a serious crime that can have significant consequences for individuals, businesses, and communities.
The case highlights the need for financial institutions to implement robust internal controls and monitoring systems to prevent embezzlement and other forms of financial malfeasance.
