Worker who stole $90K from prosecutors office may avoid prison
A former Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office employee who pleaded guilty to stealing $89,976 from the county “made a series of bad choices which resulted in a situation that he could not overcome or correct,” according to a sentencing memorandum filed by his attorney Tuesday.
The memo says David Bruns reported the theft, dating back to December 2011, to his supervisor “in the summer of 2016.” Bruns worked in the delinquent tax unit.
He was fired Aug. 22 and Montgomery County Prosecutor Mat Heck — whose cousin is Bruns’ wife Julie, who is head of Heck’s juvenile division — filed a request to have Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien take over the case as special prosecutor on Aug. 30.
Bruns’ sentencing is scheduled for Feb. 28. O’Brien has not filed a sentencing memo, but he previously said he is not recommending a prison sentence if Bruns pays back the money.
