\"U.S.<\/a>ROME, GA.<\/strong>\u2014 For nearly eight years, Judy Elaine Henry <\/strong>illegally siphoned money from her former employer’s company, Bec-Don Inc,<\/strong> a company that supplies concrete reinforcing steel and related products to the construction industry, according to officials.<\/p>\n

Authorities said\u00a0Henry embezzled more than $500,000 in company funds by writing checks payable to herself on Bec-Don’s account, and by making false entries in Bec-Don’s checkbook and accounting records to make it appear that the checks had been issued to pay legitimate company expenses.<\/p>\n

Henry, 50, of Lafayette, Georiga, plead guilty to wire fraud charges arising out of her theft of more than $500,000. She will be sentenced in July.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis defendant abused her employer\u2019s trust by stealing money from the company account for nearly eight years, ultimately more than $500,000,\u201d said Acting U.S. Attorney John Horn.<\/strong> \u201cBusinesses have the right to expect honest services from their employees, but they should nonetheless be vigilant and adopt protocols to safeguard against internal fraud.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Henry deposited some of the fraudulent checks into her personal account and then used her debit card to spend the stolen money, officials said.<\/p>\n
