EMPLOYEE SENTENCED TO THREE YEARS PROBATION, ORDERED TO PAY $34,030 RESTITUTION FOR THEFT
A former Los Angeles-based Amtrak employee was sentenced in Los Angeles Municipal Court on March 13, 2020, to three years of probation, ordered to pay $34,030 in restitution to Amtrak, and to complete 90 days of community service. The former employee pleaded guilty to grand theft after our investigation revealed she stole money from the Employee Vending Commission Fund. She admitted to a portion of her total theft on December 4, 2018, during an interview with our agents, and immediately resigned from the company thereafter.
