According to the feds, "Dana Morris, 42, of Williamsburg, pleaded guilty yesterday to charges of engaging in a monetary transaction involving proceeds of unlawful activity and tax evasion.
In a statement of facts filed with the plea agreement, Morris acknowledged stealing $558,595.26 from her former employer, an elderly resident of Williamsburg. Through her work as a housekeeper and a personal assistant, Morris gained access to the victim’s home and personal effects. Between 2012 and 2014, Morris altered and completely forged 117 checks drawn on her employer’s personal checking account. Morris deposited all of these checks into her personal checking account and spent all of the stolen money on, among other things, over $445,000 in retail and entertainment items. In March 2014, Morris and another individual used $27,000 of the stolen money to purchase a new car. Morris falsely stated her income on her 2012 tax return, failing to report the majority of the stolen money. Morris evaded the assessment of personal income tax in 2013 and 2014 by failing to file tax returns and filing extensions in which she falsely stated she would owe no tax for each year.
Morris was indicted by a federal grand jury on January 11, and faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison when sentenced on November 10. The maximum statutory sentence is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes, as the sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the court based on the advisory Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. The parties agreed, subject to the approval of the District Court Judge, that her sentence will not exceed 37 months."
