Former teller charged with credit union embezzlement

ANCHORAGE — A 23-year-old Anchorage resident was arraigned this week on a charge of embezzling from a credit union.

Federal prosecutors say Shanice Mano took more than $100,000 from her former employer, Credit Union 1.

Mano was a teller at the credit union.

Prosecutors said she accessed customer accounts without authority and transferred money to accounts that she controlled.

The FBI investigated the case.

Mano was arrested Monday and arraigned Tuesday in U.S. District Court. Online court records did not list her attorney within the federal public defender’s office.
