Question

Assume there was actual harm caused by the employee's actions. Meaning that checks were in fact presented to the company's bank and the bank cashed the checks and paid out over $10,000 to various individuals. So the money is gone. First, harm was done to the company who now has to make up for the loss revenue that was paid out by the bank. Second, harm to the vendor who provided the company with a product/supplies, was given a VALID check to pay for those items, and is now unable to cash that check or receive payment because the company's account is now overdrawn and frozen by the bank. Third, harm to the bank. If any.

You are the prosecutor, would you charge someone for a crime?

Assuming the answer is YES:

1. Who would you charge?

2. Why would you charge that person?

3. What would you charge that person with?

Answer 1

Assuming there was actual harm caused by the employee's actions. Being a Prosecutor I would have surely charged the person involved in crime.

1. I would have charged employee involved in the process.

2. The employee needs to be charged for crime because it is his duty to check the Cheques which he did not perform efficiently and hence there is need to teach him/her a lession so that they do not repeat the same mistake again.

3. The person must be charged a monetary compensation for the loss which may be in the form of monthly installments if he/she is not able to pay all at once.
