Detroit – — A woman who authorities say conspired with a Catholic priest to embezzle money from a church charity was sentenced Tuesday to five years of probation and ordered to pay a $5,000 fine.
Dorreca Brewer, 34, of Jackson said nothing as she was sentenced by Wayne County Circuit Court Judge Bruce Morrow.
Her lawyer, Southfield attorney Randall Upshaw, had asked that Brewer be ordered to give back only $2,000 of the money Upshaw says she is responsible for taking.
But Assistant Wayne County Prosecutor Michael Woodyard asked Morrow to order Brewer to also pay back $3,000 given to needy applicants which was split with her co-defendant, the Rev. Timothy Kane.
