Ex-treasurer pleads guilty to stealing $306,000 from Farmington food closetFARMINGTON — The ex-treasurer of the Care and Share Food Closet in Farmington pleaded guilty Tuesday to stealing $306,000 from the nonprofit organization over a period of nearly 10 years. Mary O'Donal, 74, of Farmington was the sole handler of finances for the organization from the 1970s until she resigned in November 2015. The embezzlement began in the early 2000s, according to officials. O'Donal spoke softly as she entered her guilty plea to a charge of Class B theft by unauthorized taking or transfer. Her attorney, Christopher Berryment, was by her side in Franklin County Superior Court. The maximum punishment for a conviction on a Class B crime is up to 10 years in prison, Justice Robert Mullen said. The maximum fine is $20,000.
