Woman sentenced after embezzlement from credit union

CLARKSBURG, W. Va. — A woman will serve five years on probation after embezzling money from the Harrison County Federal Credit Union.

Lisa Marie Farrell, 28 was sentenced by Circuit Judge Thomas A. Bedell on Thursday.

She embezzled a total of $28,000 from the bank while working as a teller and pleaded guilty to the charges back in May.

Three other charges were dismissed as part of a plea agreement between Assistant Prosecutor James Armstrong and defense attorney Tim Gentilozzi.

Farrell was also ordered to pay back restitution to CUNA Mutual Insurance, which averages to nearly $570 a month.
