A Scottsville woman’s scheme to defraud her former employer has landed her in federal prison. Reda W. Tabor, 67, was sentenced to two years in federal prison for engaging in a scheme to defraud her former employer, Beneke Wire Company in Louisville, Kentucky.
The charges in this case stemmed from Tabor’s scheme in which, from 2014 to 2020, she used her position to access the company’s bank accounts and make unauthorized transfers of company funds to her personal bank account.
According to court records, Tabor was sentenced to two years in federal prison, followed by two years of supervised release, for one count of wire fraud. The case was investigated by the FBI.
Tabor was also ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $873,107 and a fine in the amount of $10,000. There is no parole in the federal system.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Amanda Gregory prosecuted the case.
The scheme was uncovered after an investigation by the FBI. The case serves as a reminder of the importance of accountability in the workplace.
Beneke Wire Company is a leading manufacturer of wire and cable products based in Louisville, Kentucky.
The outcome of this case highlights the severity of the consequences for those who engage in financial crimes.
