MARQUETTE, MI— A woman charged with embezzling from the Marquette Senior High School athletics department has entered into a plea deal.
Stacey Kangas, 45, of Marquette, was originally charged last February with embezzlement—$100,000 or more and embezzlement, agent or trustee—$20,000 or more but less than $50,000.
A pretrial conference scheduled for Tuesday was canceled after Kangas agreed to plead no contest to the lesser charge. The charge of embezzlement—$100,000 or more was dropped.
Sentencing is set for January 16 in Marquette County Circuit Court.
