Stacy T. Jenson, a 50-year-old woman from Waterford, Wisconsin, has been indicted on 17 counts of wire, mail, and credit card fraud in the Eastern District of Wisconsin. The indictment alleges that Jenson carried out a scheme to defraud her employer, Industrial Electric Wire & Cable, Inc. (IEWC), of New Berlin, Wisconsin, between January 2009 and March 2012.

As part of her scheme, Jenson allegedly used IEWC credit cards and checks for purposes other than those authorized by the company, often for activities in connection with her separate and part-time 'Elite Sports' business. The indictment further alleges that Jenson fraudulently obtained a $68,000 loan in connection with the scheme.

According to the indictment, Jenson fraudulently obtained the loan and used IEWC checks and credit cards for unauthorized purposes to steal more than $1.9 million.

Each of the 15 mail or wire fraud charges contained in the indictment carries a maximum possible penalty of up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, or both. Each of the two credit card fraud charges contained in the indictment carries a maximum possible penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, or both.

The matter was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and has been assigned to Assistant United States Attorney Stephen A. Ingraham for prosecution.

The public is cautioned that an indictment is merely the formal method of presenting charges in federal court and does not constitute evidence of the defendant's guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent until such time, if ever, as the government establishes her guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

The indictment alleges that during the period from approximately January 2009 until March 2012, Jenson carried out a scheme to defraud certain business entities, primarily her employer at the time, IEWC.
