January 26, 2010 - A federal grand jury today indicted a Knoxville, Ala., woman on charges she stole $39,000 from the credit union where she worked, announced U.S. Attorney Joyce White Vance and FBI Special Agent in Charge Patrick Maley.
The two-count indictment filed in U.S. District Court charges CHRISTA ANNE BOLER, 29, with one count of bank fraud. Boler worked at the Alabama Credit Union in Tuscaloosa and is accused of stealing from it between July 2008 and January 2009, then submitting false deposit and withdrawal slips to the bank to hide the thefts from the teller drawer.
The maximum sentence for Count One is 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine. Count Two of the indictment seeks to have Boler forfeit $39,000 to the government as proceeds of illegal activity.
Special agents of the FBI investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick Carney is prosecuting the matter on behalf of the United States.
Members of the public are reminded that indictments contain only charges. A defendant is presumed innocent and it will be the government’s burden to prove a defendant’s guilt at trial.
