The NCUA announces new orders.
A former manager of a Cleveland credit union and a former employee of a New York-based CUSO insurance company were banned from participating in the affairs of any federally insured financial institution, the NCUA said Friday.
In September 2018, Gwendolyn Dubose, former manager and treasurer of the Greater Abyssinia Federal Credit Union, was sentenced to five years and three months in federal prison for stealing $321,497, which was nearly 78% of the credit union's total assets of $412,775. A U.S. District Court judge in Cleveland also ordered Dubose to three years of supervised release following her prison term and to pay $321,497 in restitution.
