An Alva woman is facing 24 federal counts of theft/embezzlement after being accused of diverting more than $21,000 from two doctors offices she worked at for her personal use.
The indictments against Rita Ramy, 43, were handed down by a federal grand jury in Oklahoma City, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Oklahoma.
She faces not more than 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine or both on each count. She also faces not more than three years supervised release.
Twenty of the counts were related to checks dated from April 16, 2004, to March 17, 2005, while Ramy worked for Drs. Scott and Christine Burk, who operate Woods County Medicine and Pediatric Specialists.
The other four counts relate to checks dated from Dec. 3, 2007, to March 11, 2008, while Ramy worked for Dr. David L. Graham, who operates Silver Leaf Dermatology Center in Edmond and Graham Dermatology Center in Enid.
