A North Carolina insurance agent has been sentenced to 48 months supervised probation with one year of electronic house arrest after pleading guilty to five counts of embezzlement, according to state officials.
Insurance Commissioner Wayne Goodwin announced the sentencing of Terri Lynn Spence, 34, of Emerald Isle. She was also ordered to pay $46,773.93 in restitution and court fees.
