A woman from North Irwin is facing embezzlement charges.
The Tribune-Review reports that 59-year-old Karen Vechter is accused of stealing more than $286,000 from The Braff Group in Upper St. Clair. Vechter was issued a credit card and a debit card for business expenses like making travel arrangements and paying bills, but she used the cards for personal expenses. She also wrote several checks to herself.
Dexter Braff got suspicious after Vechter tried to open a credit card in his name. A non-jury trial is set for July 9th.
