Mathill Sentenced for Bank Fraud and Mail Theft

Chief Federal District Court Judge Scott W. Skavdahl sentenced TAD NATHANIEL MATHILL, 44, of Gillette, Wyoming, to thirty months in prison for conspiracy to commit bank fraud and possession of stolen mail. Mathill also faces a term of supervised release and is ordered to pay $9,971.29 in restitution, along with a $200.00 special assessment.

The sentencing followed an investigation by the Gillette Police Department, Campbell County Sheriff’s Office, and the US Postal Inspection Service.

Mathill’s conviction marks another blow to financial crimes in Wyoming, where the U.S. Attorney’s Office continues to target sophisticated fraud schemes that victimize unsuspecting citizens.
