Simmons was employed as an office manager and was in charge of the pay roll. Authorities allege that Simmons issued checks to herself, in addition to her bi-monthly salary, and redirected an electronic transfer of funds from a company credit card to an account at the South Central Bank in Glasgow. If convicted, Simmons could serve up to 20 years in prison and be subject to paying $250,000 in fines. The case will be prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney, Joshua Judd.
