Woman faces charges of €75k theft at co-op

A woman is facing dozens of charges relating to the theft of amounts totalling almost €75,000 from a creamery and more charges of false accounting to cover it up.

Melissa Harte, 43, appeared yesterday before Clonakilty District Court, where Judge Marie Keane heard that when the first charge was put to her by a garda she apologised and said she has begun making repayments.
