A Grand Falls-Windsor-area woman has been sentenced to four months house arrest and ordered to repay $15,000 of the nearly $20,000 she stole from a local small business.
The court heard a small business owner from central Newfoundland had contacted the RCMP in March 2019 to report a potential fraud. He told police money that was supposed to be paid to other parties, including the provincial government for workplace compensation, was not being paid. The judge accepted evidence that Caravan had experienced trauma throughout her life and had been suffering from a gambling addiction and mental-health issues at the time she stole the money. She has since sought treatment.
