Wood County woman pleads guilty to bank fraud

By Scott Harvey

Mineola – A 48-year-old woman from Mineola has been sentenced to 21 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to bank fraud.

A Wood County judge also ordered Bethie Annette Horn to pay more than $427,000 in restitution.

Horn, a bookkeeper for Donovan White Cabinets, reportedly devised a scheme to defraud her employer by forging checks issued on the company's bank account and deposited them into her personal account.
