Bookkeeper Charged With Embezzling $75,000 From Passaic County Tile, Grout Company
The bookkeeper at a Passaic County tile and grout company embezzled more than $75,000 from her employer, authorities charged.
Yvette Tripicchio, 47, of Hawthorne, was charged with two counts of theft in an indictment returned by a grand jury in Paterson, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes said.
Tripicchio deposited checks from GSD Industries in Pompton Lakes into her personal bank accounts, then “tampered with company records in an attempt to hide the theft,” the prosecutor said.
Valdes didn't disclose the suspected motive.
