TUPELO
⢠A Mantachie woman is facing serious prison time after being accused of embezzling money from an Amory medical supply company. Lee County pressed charges this week but her alleged crimes span several counties and jurisdictions.
Lee County Sheriff Jim Johnson said a business filed a report Dec. 29, 2020 saying a former employee had used a company card to obtain money without permission. The business was able to provide records of the charges from the past year and a half.
Based on that information, warrants were issued for Lynsey Vanstory, 32, on charges of embezzlement of more than $25,000 and three counts of credit card fraud.
