El fiscal del condado de Ocean, Bradley D.. Billhimer anunció que en octubre 11, 2024, Doña Carlo Tanzola, 51, de Manahawkin, fue sentenciado por la Honorable Kimarie Rahill, J.S.C., hasta cinco años de la prisión estatal de Nueva Jersey en relación con su declaración de culpabilidad previamente culpable, in connection with her former employment as an administrative assistant with the engineering firm Horn, Tyson & Yoder, Cª. Judge Rahill also ordered Carlo-Tanzola pay restitution in the amount of $139,698.56. Carlo-Tanzola pled guilty to the charge before Judge Rahill on July 1, 2024.
An investigation by the Long Beach Township Police Department revealed that between May 2022 y noviembre 2022, Carlo-Tanzola, through her employment with Horn, Tyson & Yoder, took checks made payable to the business and deposited them into her personal bank accounts for her own personal benefit. In an attempt to cover up her theft, Carlo-Tanzola edited the business’s financial records by deleting paid invoices in client accounts – despite the firm having received payments for services rendered. En total, Carlo-Tanzola diverted dozens of checks totaling $178,774.35. After being confronted with the theft, Carlo-Tanzola made partial restitution.
