A former finance director of two Seattle non-profits has been sentenced to 41 months in prison following a guilty plea in May.

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. Tantico pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $3 million to pay for her luxuries in May.“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.

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.
