A Dutchess County woman who worked as a bookkeeper at a local business in Ulster County pled guilty to stealing over $150,000. This marks her third conviction involving similar schemes.

53-year-old Mauren Leggett, from Red Hook pled guilty in Ulster County Court to 3rd-degree grand larceny, a class D felony.

According to the Ulster County Sheriff’s Office, Leggett worked as a bookkeeper in charge of financial matters for a local business in Ulster Park. Between January 23, 2013 to April 6, 2015, Leggett stole $155,594 from the business.
