Fayette County Solicitor employee Sabrina Ann Miller has been charged with felony theft by taking of more than $3,800 in funds from her office at the Fayette County Justice Center.

Miller between the dates of Jan. 1, 2007 and Dec. 31, 2009 took a total of $3,836.48 in funds that were the property of the Fayette County, according to court records filed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

The funds taken by Miller represented a breach of her fiduciary obligation, records said.

The charge of theft by taking-fiduciary is a felony.

There were two warrants issued for theft by taking charges. The first occurred on Dec. 30 when Miller was said to have taken and cashed a $300 money order from the Solicitor’s office in an October 2008 incident. Miller at the time posted a cash bond of $5,000.

A subsequent warrant for Miller was issued on Jan. 14 for taking funds from the Solicitor’s office from 2007-2009 valued at $3,536.48. Miller was released on her own recognizance based on the posting of the previous cash bond.

The Crook in the Courthouse won't see a day in jail, Normal. This will all die down. The solicitor is embarrassed. No follow up and she will get probation. Don't fret about your gal pal here though. She should get time but she won't.

Unbelievable. I'm glad this is a felony. Now she has lost her job and will spend more than she has stole to defend herself. Was it worth it?
