Genealogical Society Treasurer Indicted for Theft

A 67-year-old woman has been indicted for bilking the non-profit she volunteered at out of thousands of dollars, according to Licking County Prosecutor Ken Oswalt (Ohio, USA).

From Jan. 1, 2007, through Dec. 10, Karen L. Ray, allegedly stole about $4,300 from the Licking County Genealogical Society, the indictment and Oswalt state. She is charged with fifth-degree felony theft. Ray was a volunteer treasurer for the ancestry identification organization, the prosecutor said.

One of her alleged methods of drawing down on the society’s dollars was to withdraw money under the guise of transferring it to another fund, Oswalt said.
