OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A judge has ordered an Omaha woman accused of fraudulently selling tickets to two recent Taylor Swift concerts in Omaha stay away from casinos and keno parlors and undergo counseling for a possible gambling addiction.
42-year-old Samantha Graeve made her initial court appearance on Friday. Police say she was Metropolitan Entertainment and Convention Authority employee when she printed and sold 211 fraudulent tickets to Swift’s concerts on Oct. 9 and Oct. 10 at the CenturyLink Center.
She has been charged with one count of felony theft by deception. She faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted.
Her defense attorney told the court that she is on three medications for mental health issues and would be a good candidate for probation.
