\"\"SEATTLE<\/strong> \u2014 A Woodinville man has been indicted on 30 federal felony charges accusing him of stealing more than $440,000 from two banks where he worked and laundering the money through other financial institutions, officials announced last week.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the indictment, Joshua Shore, 41, worked as operations manager of a cash vault at a nationwide bank’s Tukwila facility from July 2019 to April 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

The charges are allegations. Shore is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.<\/span><\/p>\n

He allegedly stole $40,000 on Dec. 6, 2021, and $100,000 on Jan. 28, 2022. <\/span><\/p>\n

Prosecutors say he laundered the money through repeated $3,000 cash deposits of $100 bills at ATMs belonging to a different bank where he held personal accounts, then moved the funds to another institution.<\/span><\/p>\n

From September 2023 to December 2025, Shore worked as a market manager at a bank in Renton. The indictment alleges he stole $300,000 from that vault on the eve of the Columbus Day\/Indigenous Peoples Day holiday, then laundered it through ATM deposits of up to $10,000 at a time into a personal account at another bank.<\/span><\/p>\n
