Ex-Union Officer Charged with Stealing $280,000 in Maine
Portland, Maine – A former union officer has been charged with embezzling over $280,000 in union funds in Maine.
Ryan Jones, 34, of Bath, Maine was indicted yesterday by a federal grand jury for allegedly stealing from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Local Lodge S6, during a period when he served as an officer of that union.
The indictment charges Jones with embezzling over $280,000 from the union.
If convicted, Jones faces up to five years in prison, three years of supervised release, a $10,000 fine and restitution, according to federal prosecutors.
The investigation was conducted by the U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Labor-Management Standards and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
An indictment is merely an accusation, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. Jones is currently being held without bail.
A court date has been set for Jones, but the exact date was not available at press time.
