Former Forest Service Employee To Serve 4 Years In Jail

A former employee of the Forest Service will serve four years in federal prison after embezzling $1.4 million. Justice Department officials say Kathy Stamps of Rancho Cucamonga was an accountant at the Angeles National Forest offices. From 2002 to 2004 Stamp she filed phony paper work that led to fake refund checks being sent to entities under her control. Stamps spent more than a million dollars on cars, jewelry, mortgage payments and plastic surgery. She's been ordered to pay it all back in restitution.

And nobody had any oversight over her? That seems strange, especially for government bureaucracy. Her lifestyle should have given a clue.
