Former office manager Sandra Wallace gets one year sentence for 64K steal from Maine orthodontic office

Sandra Wallace worked for seventeen years as the office manager for a dental practice in Rockland, New York (NY) — arriving early, staying late, never taking vacation — before her employer discovered she had been embezzling from the practice. She was sentenced to one year in prison. Her case is a textbook example of the long-tenured, dedicated employee who exploits unchecked access: the very behaviours that made her appear indispensable masked the absence of any financial oversight.
