Former Gadsden bank manager sentenced for stealing money from dead customer’s account

MoneyDorinda Lynn Lumpkin of Gadsden, Ala. was sentenced to more than a year in prison for embezzling money from the account of a deceased customer at BBVA, where Lumpkin was employed as branch manager.

Lumpkin was sentenced to 12 months and one day for stealing over $184,000 after pleading guilty in January of this year. She reportedly prepared and approved transactions in her capacity as branch manager, and then withdrew funds from accounts associated with the deceased customer and her daughter and converted the funds for her own use.

The U.S. Secret Service Cyber Fraud Task Force investigated, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Edward J. Canter prosecuted the case.
