Terri Kakalecik, 40, of Snohomish, Washington was accused of embezzling up to $95,000 from the dental practice where she had served as bookkeeper and office manager for five years before resigning. Investigators identified the alleged scheme following her departure from the practice. An employee’s resignation occasionally serves as the catalyst for a financial review that uncovers earlier misconduct, reinforcing the importance of conducting a thorough financial audit whenever a key employee leaves.
