FARGO (KFGO) – A Fargo woman has been charged with theft after being accused of stealing over $80,000 from her employer.
According to court documents, Kelly Tweiten transferred money into her personal banking account, and wrote fraudulent checks to herself from Dietrich Homes where she worked as a financial manager. The allegations came to light after the owner of the business noticed irregularities in the business account late last week.
Tweiten is accused of writing five checks to herself totaling over $15,000. She is also accused of making purchases on her company credit card, and then using the business account to pay the charges before the owner saw them. On one occasion Tweiten allegedly direct deposited $7,000 into her personal account after hours from her office computer.
Court records show that the owner believes the total amount stolen is between $80,000 and $100,000.
Tweiten’s next court appearance is set for Feb. 22.
What form of a relationship did they have together? doesn’t mean it’s right, just curious?
