A former finance director of two Seattle non-profits pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $3 million to pay for her luxuries.
Susana Tantico of Renton admitted to embezzling money over the course of nine years, and she is being charged with two counts of wire fraud.“Ms. Tantico was a trusted financial professional who sadly used her skills to steal from organizations serving those most in need of help,” said U.S. Attorney Nicholas Brown. “Each time she used the organization’s credit card for trips, gambling, or clothing, she knew she was effectively stealing from people who depended on assistance from her employer.
The 62-year-old worked in the finance departments of Country Doctor Community Health Centers, which provides healthcare to low-income people, where she embezzled nearly $2.3 million to pay for family vacations and purchases at Nordstrom and Apple, and even withdrew $1.6 million at casinos for gambling. She stole the money from 2011 to 2020.She later went to work at Community Passageways, which focused on youth and criminal justice issues, where she stole nearly $900,000.
