Former NV Supervising District Court Clerk Arrested for Felony Theft

A former supervising Washoe District Court clerk has surrendered to face criminal charges stemming from allegations she siphoned more than $200,000 from a state court trust account to pay personal gambling debts.

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports that 45-year-old Teresa Prince was arrested Monday on a felony theft warrant. Bail was set at $7,500 pending an appearance in Reno Justice Court.

The Gazette-Journal reports that Prince resigned March 2, less than a week after money was found to be missing from a Second Judicial District Court account.
