WICHITA, KAN. A former branch manager at Landmark National Bank in Garden City, Kan., has been sentenced for embezzling more than $99,000 from the bank, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said today.

Sheri L. Green, 52, Garden City, Kan., was sentenced Monday to three years supervised release and ordered to pay $99,060 in restitution.

She pleaded guilty to one count of misapplication of bank funds by a bank employee. In her plea, she admitted that in December 2012 while she was employed as branch manager for Landmark National Bank in Garden City the bank discovered she had embezzled approximately $99,600 from the bank to cover her gambling losses. She took the money by shifting money between customer accounts. Several customers had noticed irregular entries in their bank statements and complained to Green. She corrected the withdrawals by shifting money from other accounts to the complaining customer’s accounts to cover her tracks.

Grissom commended the FBI and Assistant U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom for their work on the case.
