The office contacted police, worried that it's trust fund and bank accounts may had been compromised between September 1, 2014 and June 27, 2019.

The NRP started investigating back in August. Officers police arrested a 34-year-old woman yesterday.

She has been charged with fraud over $5,000, uttering a forged document, falsification of books, laundering the proceeds of crime and criminal breach of trust.
