Wyoming woman sentenced on grand theft by exploitation charge

Posted

PIERRE — A Gillette, Wyoming, woman has been ordered to pay $93,367.05 in restitution after pleading guilty to one count of grand theft by exploitation.

Alexa Kinney, 33, entered her plea Monday in Pennington County. She also was sentenced to 10 years in prison, which was suspended, and placed on probation for six years.

“The defendant was entrusted with another person’s property and violated that trust by using the estate’s funds for her own personal use,” said Attorney General Marty Jackley. “Thank you to the investigators and prosecutors who brought this case to this resolution.”

The crimes were committed between March 2017 and July 2017.

South Dakota’s Division of Criminal Investigation investigated the case. The Attorney General’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit prosecuted the case.
