KANSAS CITY, Kan.—Susan Wooten-Robb, a former employee of Community America Credit Union, has pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $34,000.
The U.S. attorney's office here said 25-year-old Wooten-Robb admitted to one count of wire fraud.
In February 2014, two members from the Overland Park, Kans.-based CU complained about unauthorized debits from their accounts, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Prosecutors stated that in one instance, Wooten-Robb attempted to cover up an unauthorized debit by filing a false currency transaction report. In it, she claimed the account holders took out the money to assist a family member with paying tuition.
Wooten-Robb faces up to 30 years in prison and a fine of up to $1 million. Sentencing will be set for a later date.
