Another proof, that the worst robberies come from the inside. But if this woman was able to squander such a large sum of money over a period of a few years, then there was no effective control mechanism in place. The alarm belsl should have gone off long before a million was lost.

It is unfortunate how people abuse the trust that is given to them, besides the owners for more than they should review the accounts of the business once a year, to verify that all is well, thank God the revisat continues to work and does not affect your workers, let's hope they get up

It took her five years to get all that money. While it isnt much, compared to some other cases of theft of that type, it is still a substantial amount of money. But she got caught at the end. Something natural. How much longer she thought , she would go undetected.

I am glad that they have caught this woman and that now justice can be delivered. I have been a reader of Card Player magazine over the years and the Shulman's have always come across as decent people

Shelby McCann, found the bowl with plenty of milk, and stole from it without a logic, that can not be captured so fast, or not at all. She lived for a short period of time very good, but now comes the bad part for her, the judgment... She will have to have a good lawyer, and if it has any property, it will remain without her, to pay the damages.

You just have to think at least some of these magazines maybe are employing some notorius gambling addicts too. Altough this broad was just looking to spend money on stupid things.
