A 48 year old former investment dealer has been sentenced in Moncton to 3 and a half years in prison for defrauding several of her clients.
Catherine Darlene Ford pleaded guilty to six charges. The court was told she illegally withdrew 1.3 million dollars from the accounts of six of her clients, many of whom were elderly. They have since been reimbursed by Scotia McLeod.
Several of her clients had more than 100 thousand dollars taken from their accounts without consent.
