PLUMSTED – A township woman was charged with theft and forgery for allegedly writing checks to herself from her employer.
Karly Simon-Sapp, 49, of Plumsted, worked as a bookkeeper for the New Jersey Apartment Association. Police said that between January 2016 and January 2022, she forged the signatures of both the Association’s president and vice-president on over 100 checks written out to either herself or to cash.
Simon-Sapp then deposited the forged checks, totaling more than $358,000, into her personal bank account and utilized the funds for her own personal benefit, police said.
Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer and Plumsted Police Chief Earl Meroney acknowledged the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Economic Crime Squad and Plumsted Township Police Department for their collaborative efforts in connection with this investigation.
The charges referenced are merely accusations and the public is reminded that all defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
