A Sudbury woman has been charged with fraud and uttering forged documents following a seven-month investigation by the Greater Sudbury Police Service?s fraud unit.
Police say the investigation revealed that between Jan. 1, 1999 and Dec. 31, 2001, a former bookkeeper for a moving company misappropriated funds received on behalf of the company.
Joanne Miller, 46, stands accused of depositing falsified company cheques into her own bank account causing the company to incur a loss of just over $45,000, say police.
Miller has been charged with one count of fraud over $5,000 and two counts of uttering forged documents. Miller is scheduled to make her first court appearance on March 10.
