LEWISTON, Idaho–An employee at the Lewiston branch of Idaho Central Credit Union has allegedly been fired and is facing a grand theft charge after allegedly stealing over $60,000 from the credit union.
According to court documents, multiple audits revealed shortages of cash from the vault and electronic devices that handle cash at the credit union, with ICCU reporting its own internal investigation included a review of surveillance footage and logs from the vault and machines.
Big Country News cited court documents that indicate video evidence show Macey L. Wymore, 31, of Clarkston, Idaho, can allegedly be seen “pocketing cash on multiple occasions.”
What Investigation Allegedly Revealed
ICCU's investigation shows she allegedly had stolen over $63,000 between Dec. 7, 2023 and June 7, 2024, Big Country News reported. Wymore was reportedly terminated in June.
“According to court documents, logs and audits indicated Wymore is suspected of taking nearly $4,000 in early December, $13,400 in February and $26,000 in May,” the report states. “Wymore allegedly took $23,000 on June 4, but later returned the cash when it was discovered to be missing. Wymore is also accused of taking $20,000 on June 7.”
Big Country News reported that Wymore allegedly admitted to police that she took approximately $40,000 to $45,000 from ICCU and that all of the stolen money had been spent.
Account at Another Credit Union
