Anthony Fremarek was charged in January, accused of with embezzling nearly $1.4 million from the consulting firm where he worked until 2019 to pay his personal credit cards. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, he attempted to conceal the embezzlement by falsifying entries in the company's accounting system — over a period of six years — to disguise the payments as seemingly legitimate business expenses.
