Another example of how a $50 to $100 background check would have saved a company's reputation and about $100,000 that belonged to people who are less fortunate

In Idaho a trusted employee, Leslie Briggs, of a nonprofit company that helps people manage their money who have trouble managing their own money stole over $100,000 from an account that she managed. If that is not bad enough, she was convicted on two previous embezzlement cases before she started working at her current job. A simple, inexpensive pre-employment check would have discovered these convictions. I am sure her employer would not have put her in the position to manage funds if they knew she was already convicted of embezzlement.
