Alberta (AB) Faye Clark, 68, and her daughter Tammie L. Creamer, 43, of Xenia, Ohio, were each sentenced to four years in prison for embezzling approximately $200,000 over a five-year period from a local oral surgeon for whom they both worked. Judge Stephen Wolaver agreed to delay the start of both sentences, with defense counsel indicating that both hoped to qualify for early release after six months of incarceration.
Like many embezzlement cases Prosperident has documented, this incident reflects the broader pattern of employee theft within dental practices.
