The former chief financial officer of the
Arkansas Local Police and Fire Retirement System faces a charge of
theft by deception.
Candyce Campbell is charged in the theft of nearly 60-thousand
dollars paid as a benefit for a retired officer and his wife after
they died.
The 45-year-old suspect was released without bond after agreeing
to attend her next court date on May 10th. She was fired in October
after working for the retirement system for 14 years. The firing
was NOT related to the case.
According to an affidavit, Campbell stole about three years`
worth of monthly checks intended for former North Little Rock
office R-L Stinnett. Stinnett died in 1994, and his wife died in
2000.
The account was closed after Clara Stinnett died, but was
reactivated a month later.
