🚨 Former Pleasant Valley Mayor, Emily Haddix, accused of fraud and embezzlement.💸

✴️ CLARIFICATION✴️
I read aloud that the transfers were labeled "Bank Card".
I later stated, independently, that the transfers were labeled "General" and "Hotel & Motel Tax".
This was my mistake.
I meant to say they were labeled "Bank Card" and transferred FROM those specific city accounts.
13 transfers were made FROM the "General" account and 101 transfers were made FROM the "Hotel & Motel Tax" account.

(thank you Joshua Shingleton for pointing out my mistake)
