DISMISSED | THEFT OF MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION / EMBEZZLEMENT – State v. Ms. S., (Maricopa County Superior Court No. 020561CR): Ms. S. was a bookkeeper for a local construction company. She was given permission by the owner to pay certain personal expenses and to purchase a jeep as part of her payment package.
