CADILLAC â A 47-year-old Boon woman faced a lone embezzlement charge that alleged she stole from her former employer during her arraignment in 84th District Court.
Melody Linn Slocumb was charged with one count of embezzlement by an agent or trustee of $1,000 or more but less than $20,000 for her connection with an incident occurring on or between the dates of July 1, 2019, and May 16, 2020, in Haring Township. If convicted, she faces up to five years in prison and/or $10,000 in fines or three times the amount embezzled, whichever is greater.
The charge is merely an accusation and not evidence of guilt. Slocumb is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law. The prosecution has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
