Former Special Olympics Employee Charged
WEST VIRGINIA....
If convicted, Victoria Jarvis of Bob White in Boone County could wind up facing up to 175 years in prison and a more than $3 million fine. Jarvis, who worked as an accountant and bookkeeper for the Special Olympics in Charleston was indicted this past week by a federal grand jury on counterfeited securities and identity theft charges. Authorities say, between May 30, 2002 and to at least July 1, 2008, she used software to create fake checks which were used to steal thousands of dollars from the organization.
