WILLIAMSPORT – A former employee benefits administrator for AccuWeather Inc. has admitted she defrauded the State College weather forecasting firm out of thousands of dollars.
Aira Nelson, 37, of West Chapel, Florida, on Thursday pleaded guilty in U.S. Middle District Court to a wire fraud charge.
The government claims her schemes netted $98,914 while assistant public defender Gerald Lord said he believes the amount is approximately $68,000.
The plea agreement requires her to make full restitution, the exact amount of which will be determined before she is sentenced.
Nelson admitted she used over a three-year period beginning in September 2015 her access to AccuWeather’s benefits, payroll and human resources information systems to establish fictitious Flexible Spending Accounts for herself, her husband and seven others.
