According to the Bill of Information, from around June 2010 through February 2017, NICOLE SERUNTINE worked as a secretary and dispatcher at Company A.M.M., located in Jefferson, Louisiana. Around October 2014 through Feb. 17, 2017, SERUNTINE devised a scheme to defraud Company A.M.M. out of more than $500,000 by using her role as administrative assistant to order a fuel card that she was not entitled to use, and unlawfully used it for her own personal expenses, including food, gas, and cash advances. If found guilty, NICOLE SERUNTINE could face up to 20 years imprisonment, a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the gross gain or loss, 5 years of supervised release, and a special assessment of $100. U.S. Attorney Peter G. Strasser stated that a Bill of Information is merely an accusation and that the guilt of the defendant must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. This case is being investigated by the United States Secret Service. Assistant U.S. Attorney Sharan E. Lieberman is in charge of the prosecution.
