A Plains woman has been charged with two felonies after allegedly misusing funds while she was bookkeeper for Plains Community Ambulance.
Dianna Tedrick, also known as Dianna Miller, entered a not guilty plea in 20th Judicial District Court on Tuesday to two charges of theft, a common scheme felony.
According to court documents, a board member of the Plains Community Ambulance contacted Plains Chief of Police Shawn Emmett in May 2017 after noticing discrepancies in the ambulance bank account.
Court documents allege that between June 2016 and April 2017, $3,009.12 was made in phone payments to a Capital One account in Tedrick’s name.
The Plains Community Ambulance members also reviewed their fuel bill records and also found several purchases for regular gas when the ambulances use diesel, documents show. The ambulance members reviewed video footage of recent fuel purchases at Plains Town Pump, according to court documents, and Tedrick was identified as making the purchases.
The ambulance records showed approximately $4,427.06 in unauthorized fuel purchases between May 2014 and April 2017.
Tedrick has been the bookkeeper for the Plains Community Ambulance since June 2012.
In court Tuesday, Tedrick entered a not guilty plea to the charges and was released after posting bond.
The charges each carry a maximum penalty of up to $10,000 fine or up to 10 years in prison.
