An Inverkeithing woman has been jailed for stealing £18,000 from her employers over a period of more than a year.
Elaine McCall, 51, of Spencerfield Road, appeared from custody for sentencing at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.
She was accounts administrator at a chocolate fountain company when bosses became suspicious about a number of payments.
McCall admitted that on various occasions between March 8, 2019, and March 23, 2020, at Sephra Europe, Denburn Road, Kirkcaldy, while an employee there, she embezzled in total the sum of £18,000 in money.
Sheriff Susan Duff jailed McCall for 93 weeks.
The court heard McCall was jailed for a similar offence in 2005.
On that occasion she was jailed for two years for embezzling £90,000 from Historic Scotland where she worked as an assistant purchase manager.
