O’FALLON, Ill. (WJPF) — A Metro East area bookkeeper is facing a ten-count federal indictment charging her with a multi-year fraud scheme.
60-year-old Kathleen Dvorak is accused of embezzling more than $1 million by writing checks to herself from her client’s account and by taking large amounts of cash when she was supposed to deposit checks into her client’s bank account. Dvorak hid the fraud by making false entries into a Quickbooks accounting program.
Dvorak could spend the rest of her life behind bars and pay millions of dollars in fines.
