For the past five years, investigators
say, Dorothy Nicolo used the bank accounts of Aenon Baptist Church like
her own pocketbook.
The 70-year-old
paid for vacations, shopping sprees and a lifestyle beyond her
means with the $119,000 she is accused of stealing from the west Leon
County church.
Nicolo, who served as the church’s
volunteer treasurer for 24 years, was arrested Wednesday by the Leon
County Sheriff’s Office on 40 felony counts that include grand theft of
more than $100,000, scheme to defraud, fraudulent use of a credit card
and forgery.
