Amy Waikiki, 36, pleaded guilty to embezzlement and admitted she stole from 34 member accounts by making 224 unauthorized transactions.

Waikiki worked for the credit union as a teller from Aug. 8, 2008, until June 25, 2009, when a state court conviction for stealing $28,000 of premiums during her employment with an insurance company caused her termination from the credit union, which then discovered the embezzlement.
