I just read this on the morning news:
“SAN FRANCISCO – Danielle Steel’s former assistant has been sentenced to nearly three years in prison for embezzling almost $1 million from the romance novelist.
Kristy Watts worked for 15 years and earned an annual salary of $200,000 for part-time work that included handling Steel’s payroll and accounting.
The 48-year-old pleaded guilty last year to depositing numerous checks made out to “cash” in her own bank account, using the author’s credit card rewards points and paying herself more than her salary.”
