A former employee of an optometry office is accused of deleting her own bill and altering patient records. The employee, Hannah Richardson, allegedly deleted her billing ledger, which had an amount owed of about $80. She also made changes to a large number of other ledgers, preventing the collection of outstanding bills.

The alterations were made between June 22 and July 2, before Richardson quit her job on July 2. The optometry office's IT department found evidence of the attempted fraud. Further details of the incident are available from the source, including the response of the Evansville Police Department to the fraud report at the Brizius, Embry & Smith optometry office.
