A 49-year-old Lee County woman who faked her own death has been sentenced to federal prison for stealing $4.19 million from her employer for personal expenses and for gambling.
U.S. District Judge Thomas Barber sentenced Madelyn Hernandez of Lehigh Acres this week to the jail time for money laundering and wire fraud. He also ordered she forfeit the proceeds of the crime.
She pleaded guilty to the charges in January.
