Stephanie Hall of Bossier City was arrested by Caddo Parish authorities today and charged with stealing nearly $300,000 when she worked as an accountant for Twin Cities Development.
Twin Cities is a player in the Haynesville Shale, leasing for Cheseapeake Energy. According to a news release, Hall manipulated lease purchase reports, computer programs and company records in order to generate fictitious checks, which she fraudulently negotiated through her personal bank account. She is accused of stealing $294,272 between May 2008 and December 2009.
Does anyone ever get away with this sort of thing?
ReplyDeleteHow does someone get away with this for so long. Pray for her family. They are the ones that are suffering.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing several years ago on 60 minutes or 20-20 a story about this very thing. A woman in Upstate New York in a position of trust bankrupted her township. It all tracks back to gambling addiction.
ReplyDeleteThe families certainly do suffer.
Her family are the ones that are suffering.. I know because I'm her 20 yr old daughter and her best friend.. what she did was wrong but she isnt a bad person. She is way more than what people think she is because of what she's done but she's a much more wonderful woman than I'll ever be and I do miss her very much.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, she didn't have a gambling addiction and can't figure out why they put that she spend most of the money on gambling. Her daughter is right, she did do a wrong, but let those who haven't cast the first stone.
ReplyDeleteI doubt that anyone is going to cast stones at the woman. But I am sure that the rightful owners of the money want it back, and the society in which we live has to lock away the people who do this sort of thing to teach them not to do it.
ReplyDeleteIf this was the first time she had done something like this it would be one thing , but she has done this her whole life . And her children have known and will most likely do the same.
ReplyDeleteHer children won't do the same.. Parents' mistakes do not dictate their children's outcomes. At the end of the day, people have parents who aren't perfect but the only choices that the children will be affecting them will be their own.
ReplyDeleteShe will do it again, it's all she knows.
