NEW PHILADELPHIA, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – A Dover woman who’s accused of stealing nearly $200,000 from St John United Church in Strasburg is going to jail for three months.
That was the sentence handed down in Tuscarawas County Common Pleas Court to 57-year-old Jodi Davis, who must also pay $30,000 in restitution.
The rest of the loss was covered by insurance proceeds.
Davis was in charge of all financial matters at the church for a number of years.
Her attorney reportedly says she began stealing in 2009 when her husband lost his job.
The thefts occurred through 2021.
