Latoyha S. Sapp, 37, of Wayne was being held on $35,000 bail in the Bergen County Jail pending an initial court appearance this afternoon.
She was charged with trafficking in personal identifying information of another and computer-related theft following an investigation by the Bergen County Prosecutor’s White Collar and Computer Crimes squads.
Detectives arrested Sapp yesterday “after learning that she had engaged in the unauthorized acquisition and distribution of personal identifying information pertaining to multiple people who were patients of record at Cogent Healthcare Incorporated, a company under contract with Hackensack University Medical Center, where she worked as an Administrative Coordinator of Medical Records,” Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said.
The information leading to the arrest came from a larger identity theft investigation by the prosecutor’s detectives that led to charges against nine people early last year, he said.
“Representatives of Cogent Healthcare and Hackensack University Medical Center have cooperated with the investigation,” the prosecutor said.
