Federal prosecutors said Riverside resident Matthew P. Hernandez, 46, was ordered to serve two years in prison and pay back the money
The former operations manager of a small San Diego technology support firm was sentenced Friday to two years in federal prison for embezzling more than $350,000 from the company.
Matthew P. Hernandez, 46, of Riverside, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in San Diego to four felony wire fraud counts last summer for using his role at Networks 2000 to steal funds “hundreds of times over the course of seven years, from 2010 to January 2017,” prosecutors said. The prosecution’s sentencing papers say Hernandez was responsible for managing payroll, accounts payable and disbursing bonuses to employees, giving him “unfettered access to the company’s books and records.”
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Hernandez used several methods to steal from Networks 2000, including issuing checks and making online payments to pay off his credit card debt and using the corporate credit card to make personal purchases. He also issued multiple paychecks to himself during a single pay period and issued checks from the business checking account directly into his personal bank account.
