Former Employee Admits to Wire Fraud in Pennsylvania
A former employee of Magee-Womens Hospital has pleaded guilty to wire fraud in federal court, announced United States Attorney David J. Hickton today.
Timothy L. Mangis, 49, of Imperial, Pa., pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud before Senior United States District Judge Maurice B. Cohill.
In connection with the guilty plea, Mangis, as a former Facilities Director at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, used a UPMC credit card to obtain merchandise for himself, including auto repair services for his car, building materials and appliances, and electronic equipment at retailers such as Pep Boys, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Best Buy.
The law provides for a maximum total sentence of 20 years in prison, a fine of $250,000, or both. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed would be based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant.
Judge Hornack scheduled sentencing for April 9, 2013.
Assistant United States Attorney Gregory C. Melucci is prosecuting this case on behalf of the government. The United States Secret Service conducted the investigation that led to the prosecution of Timothy L. Mangis.
This case is a reminder of the importance of accountability in the workplace and the consequences of using company resources for personal gain.
