MORRIS PLAINS, NJ – Three women have been arrested and charged in connection with the theft of payroll funds from Atlantic Health System in Morris Plains.
According to Morris County Prosecutor Robert J. Carroll, Jessica Addison, age 39, Kaleigh Kalb, age 21, of Chester, New Jersey, as well as Isabella Valentine, age 21, of Mendham Township, were arrested after an investigation by the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office,
The investigation revealed that Jessica Addison, now a former employee of Atlantic Health System, engaged in a scheme with both Kaleigh Kalb and Isabella Valentine to create false employee profiles.
“This allowed for Addison to submit fabricated timecards for both Kalb and Valentine even though neither performed work for the company,” the prosecutor’s office said. “As a result, weekly payroll distributions, totaling approximately $71,157, were received and systematically shared amongst the three women.”
Each suspect was charged with third-degree theft and conspiracy to commit theft.
