Government workers sentenced in embezzlement case

ELKINS — Sgt. First Class Shane Morgan with the West Virginia Army National Guard and Master Sgt. (retired) Russell Morgan were sentenced Thursday for charges related to the embezzlement and unlawful sale of government property, U.S. Attorney Bill Powell said.

Morgan, 35, of Buckhannon, and Russell Morgan, 61, of Helvetia, were each sentenced to four years probation.

Each pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to embezzle government property in September 2018. The two men admitted to stealing at least 80 items of United States government property worth an estimated total of more than $80,000.

The men obtained access to this property through their official positions at the United States Property and Fiscal Office warehouse in Buckhannon. The crimes took place from August 2010 to October 2017 in Upshur County.

The stupid jackasses stole from the public. They should be punished for their crimes of continuing to steal from the public for many years. They must have paid off the judge or maybe the judge was a relative?
