Bank Embezzler Sentenced to a Year in Jail
An Anchorage woman has been sentenced to a year in jail for embezzling over $100,000 from her former employer Credit Union 1.
Shanice Mano, age 23, of Anchorage, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Chief Judge Timothy M. Burgess for her role in the embezzlement scheme.
According to Assistant U.S. Attorney Aunnie Steward, Mano was a teller at Credit Union 1 when she accessed a customer’s account without authority and transferred money to accounts that she had control over and from which she was able to make withdrawals.
The investigation revealed that Mano’s crime was well-planned and deliberate, as she stole money that had taken the victims years to save. Chief Judge Burgess noted the need to deter others from similar crimes.
Fortunately, the FBI was able to recover $80,000 of the stolen funds. Restitution was ordered for the remainder.
U.S. Attorney Karen L. Loeffler commends the FBI for the investigation of this case.
