Former Joplin bank manager who embezzled $158,000 sentenced to one year, one day in prison


The former manager of the Guaranty Bank branch in Joplin was sentenced to one year and one day in prison during a hearing this morning in U. S. District court in Springfield.

Following her sentence, Kendra E. Richardson, 44, will be under supervised probation for three years. 






She will also be required to repay the $158,159.45 she embezzled between June 9, 2018, and December 18, 2018.
The plea agreement indicated Richardson used her position as branch manager and control over regular audits of the money in the vault to conceal her embezzling and used most of the stolen money for gambling.
