Treasurer of Local Parent Teacher Organization Arrested for Theft

(Allen County, IN)-A Hoagland woman who served as the treasurer for the Heritage Elementary Parent Teacher Organization (P.T.O.) was arrested this morning following a four month long investigation into allegations she had been stealing money from the P.T.O.

An investigation was initiated, at the request of the Heritage High School P.T.O., by Indiana State Police Detective Clint Hetrick and Allen County Police Detective Doug Keller in November 2015 following an audit after a large amount of money was discovered to have been missing from the elementary P.T.O. 

Hetrick and Keller's investigation revealed that between January 2013 and November 2014, 36 year old Genevieve M. Meyer had used the elementary P.T.O's credit card and had withdrawn money, together totaling in excess of $18,000.  As a result of their investigation, the Allen County Prosecutor's Office charged 36 year old Genevieve M. Meyer with two counts of theft. 

Meyer was arrested without incident this morning at her home and incarcerated in the Allen County Jail.

All Suspects Are Presumed Innocent Until or Unless Proven Guilty in a Court of Law.
