Bank mistakenly deposited $100,000 into NJ cop's account. He spent $36,000 of it: police
When $100,000 was inadvertently deposited into an Atlantic City police officer's checking account, he spent nearly $36,000 of it, according to the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office.
LaQuay Dubose, 37, was charged last week with third-degree theft.
In March 2023, the bank corrected the $100,000 error six days after the deposit and closed DuBose's account. During that time, he had spent $35,903, the prosecutor's office said.
The police department suspended him, according to the Press of Atlantic City.
