A federal grand jury returned a two-count indictment against Melisa A. Beyer, 37, of Oshkosh on Feb. 14.
The first count charges that between January 2007 and May 2014, Beyer embezzled funds from the Oshkosh Central Credit Union. The second count charges Beyer with making a false statement in the reports of OCCU. More specifically, in March 2014, Beyer falsely reported on OCCU records that the vault money count was in excess of $2 million when in truth, as Beyer well knew, this over-stated the amount of money located in the vault by about $1.6 million.
If convicted of the embezzlement charge, Beyer faces a maximum of 30 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and three years supervised release. If convicted of the false statement charge, Beyer faces a maximum of 30 years in prison, a $1 million fine, and three years of supervised release.
Beyer has a final pre-trial hearing scheduled at 1:30 p.m. April 12, with a trial date set for April 24. The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
