ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A former Eielson Air Force Base employee was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of embezzling.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office has accused Morgan L. Barker of embezzeling more than $12,000 from the Base Exchange where she was employed.

The indictment says Barker stole the money over a nine-month period.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephen Cooper says the 20-year-old Barker faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison or $250,000, or both if convicted.

If convicted, her sentence would be based on the severity of the crime and any criminal history she may have.
