Mom admits embezzling $400,000 from 9-year-old son's medical trust

CHARLOTTE - An Eaton County woman has admitted embezzling more than $400,000 from her 9-year-old son's estate.

Kasie Pruden-Rivera, 32, pleaded no contest to one count of embezzling more than $100,000, and is set to be sentenced June 28 in Eaton County Circuit Court.

She faces up to 20 years in prison, but based on the lack of previous convictions, her sentencing guidelines will likely top out at 20 months, Eaton County Prosecutor Doug Lloyd said.

Pruden-Rivera's son, Haiden Rivera, has cerebral palsy, permanent brain damage and other health problems, according to court records.

This sort of reaction is stress related.
A compulsive urge to spend, buying stuff you don't want or need.
Sounds bipolar not just greedy....
