美国司法部怀俄明州联邦检察官办公室2026年10月27日宣布,47岁的拉斯维加斯居民 Katrina Marie Amaya-Lopez 因在怀俄明州一家银行冒签并兑付一张被盗的美国财政部支票,被联邦地区法官 Scott W. Skavdahl 判处24个月联邦监禁、刑满后监督释放3年,并须赔偿150,590美元;判决已于10月20日在怀俄明州 Casper 宣判。
检方表示,Amaya-Lopez 冒用他人名义背书这张被盗支票并在怀俄明州兑付。调查人员跨州追踪其行踪,于2026年5月1日在内华达州将她逮捕。此案由财政部税务管理监察长办公室(TIGTA)调查,联邦助理检察官 Margaret Vierbuchen 负责起诉,案件编号26-CR-00069。
