Antigo Embezzlement Case Delayed Submitted: 01/02/2013
GREEN BAY - A Federal Court appearance got pushed back for a woman accused of embezzling over half a million dollars in Antigo.

Susan Tatro was the Human Resources Director at the Waukesha Bearings plant in Antigo from 2006 to early 2011.

She's accused of stealing more than 5-hundred 76-thousand dollars from the company.

She's charged with 30 federal counts of wire fraud.

Tatro had been due in federal court today for a pretrial conference.

That has been delayed by the sudden death of her husband in late December.

Tatro's attorney says that made her unavailable to prepare for trial or the pretrial conference.
