Description:
Wichita, KS - Hays Woman Sentenced For Mail Fraud
A Kansas woman was sentenced to a year of supervised probation for mail fraud in a scheme to make it appear her employer left her half his estate when he died. In addition, she was ordered to make monthly payments of $100 to Fort Hays State University during her probation.
Wanda Oborny, 66, Hays, Kan., pleaded guilty to one count of mail fraud. In her plea, she admitted that in 2013 she mailed a fraudulent purported codicil to Kansas banker Earl O. Field’s will to Ft. Hays State University. The document falsely claimed Field had left a fourth of his estate to the university, a fourth to his lawyer and half to Oborny. In fact, Field left the majority of the estate to the university.
Outcome: Defendant was sentenced to one year of probation and assessed $100.
