Lisa Reed, 35, of Owosso, Michigan was sentenced to one year in jail and ordered to pay $160,000 in restitution following a felony embezzlement conviction. The sentencing judge, Gerald Lostracco, stated explicitly that he intended the sentence to send a message to potential embezzlers. Reed’s case is representative of the combination of incarceration and significant restitution orders that courts regularly impose in dental embezzlement cases.
