A former Girl Scouts executive in Virginia will serve a three-month sentence after pleading guilty to embezzling nearly $23,000 from the organization.
Linda Carne, 62, of Crozier was sentenced Monday, reported the Richmond Times-Dispatch. A Hanover Circuit Court judge suspended all but three months of a five-year sentence.
Carne pleaded guilty in April. She served as CEO of the Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia from April 2010 to December 2011.
Prosecutors say Carne used a Girl Scout-issued credit card to pay for stays in posh hotels, baseball game tickets, spa services and rental of a North Carolina beach house.
