GERING, Neb. (AP) – A 32-year-old Gering woman who pleaded no contest to stealing from her employer has been given 18 to 36 months in prison.
Linda Carrillo had pleaded no contest to two counts of unlawful taking and one of unauthorized use of a financial transaction device. She was sentenced on Wednesday.
Carrillo must pay more than $17,000 in restitution to her employer, an attorney.
Prosecutors say that in one case, Carrillo wrote a fraudulent check on her employer’s account. In another case, Carrillo had used her employer’s credit card to buy an iPad 2.
Court records say Carrillo also is known as Linda Cerillo, Linda Cerrillo-Mendoza, Linda Rivas and Linda Mendoza.
