ERIE, Pa. - A resident of Fairview, Pennsylvania, has been
sentenced in federal court to 22 months in jail and ordered to pay $200,000 in
restitution on her conviction of wire fraud, United States Attorney Scott W.
Brady announced today.
United States District Judge David S. Cercone imposed the
sentence on Elizabeth McMahan, 51.
According to information presented to the court, McMahan was
a commission sales employee at National Tool Grinding in Erie. From June 2010
to August 2014, she was selling products for a thirty to ninety percent
discount without authorization from her employer, which resulted in greater
commissions for her. In addition, McMahan falsified commission reports by
submitting false sales that never occurred and increasing purchase prices.
Assistant United States Attorney Christian A. Trabold
prosecuted this case on behalf of the government.
United States Attorney Brady commended the Federal Bureau of
Investigation and the Erie Police Department for the investigation leading to
the successful prosecution of McMahan.
