Responsibility Not That Of U S He Says
A federal judge in Baltimore ruled the federal government cannot be held responsible for money embezzled from the Social Security Administration credit union by Naomi Ringrose. The ruling found government examiners negligent claims unproven and cited obvious negligence by the credit union officers. Ringrose pleaded guilty in 198 to stealing about 34 000 and serves a five year term at Alderson Federal Prison. Credit union losses totaled about 39 002 as Ringrose testified she did not take more than 100 000.
