Woman pleads guilty to theft from bank
The Daily Inter Lake | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 11 years, 8 months AGO
A former Glacier Bank employee has pleaded guilty to theft by embezzlement after taking $3,100 from the business.
Kristen Kleiv, 27, of Bigfork, entered the plea April 17 in Flathead District Court.
Kleiv’s actions were discovered after her till was $3,100 short on March 15, leading to an internal investigation at the bank that showed she had been taking money since Nov. 6, 2012. She had been hired a month earlier.
During a later interview, Kleiv admitted taking $20 from her till on a regular basis until she was caught.
She now faces up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $50,000, and restitution to the bank when she is sentenced June 12.
