She allegedly misappropriated more than $3.5 million from her employer and failed to return the funds. It’s a situation that certainly raises important questions about trust and accountability.
Authorities identified the suspect as Mischel Howard, 52, of Stony Hill, St Andrew. The police charged her with larceny as a servant and obtaining credit by fraud.
The Constant Spring police stated that the business owner found several discrepancies in the company’s accounts and confronted Howard. And Howard allegedly admitted to stealing the funds.
