Stanley pleads guilty to theft/embezzlement in Iowa

Tiffany Ann (Crowell) Stanley pleaded guilty to one count of Theft by Bank Employee Thursday in U.S. District Court.
According to court records, Stanley appeared with her attorney, Joseph J. Hrvol, in front of District Court Judge Celeste F. Bremer and pleaded guilty. The court accepted her plea and sentencing was set for 11 a.m. on Oct. 11, 2013 in front of the Honorable Stephanie M. Rose. Stanley was then released.
An investigation following the reported robbery of the Great Western Bank in Riverton on Nov. 17 led to Stanley’s indictment on March 27.
In the indictment, Stanley was accused of "Theft of funds of the United States by a bank employee," a violation of U.S. Code, Title 18, section 656. The amount of theft listed in the indictment is $25,716.40.
On Nov. 17, Stanley contacted the Fremont County Sheriff Office and reported she had been robbed while opening up the Riverton Great Western Bank around 8:30 a.m.
At that time, Stanley informed deputies a large white male pushed her into the bank as she was unlocking to back door to open the facility. The man then demanded she put money in a bag, and fled the scene on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Stanley described the robber as a "big guy," approximately 6-feet tall, with a goatee. She added the robber was wearing white sneakers, a black hooded sweatshirt, and blue jeans. Stanley received a small bruise, but was otherwise unharmed in the incident.
