Utah ? A secretary who embezzled $1.12 million from a school foundation has advice for her former bosses: Hey, get better auditors.

Denise Aughney said her crimes would have been discovered years ago if someone would have looked closer. She pleaded guilty in April to theft, money laundering and forgery and was sent to prison June 7.

In an April 28 letter to the Weber school district, Aughney wrote: “I would hope that some things have changed and new policies are in place, that this is not so easily done again.”

If auditors “had done their job this could have been caught during any of the seven years. I never changed any information during an audit to hide my crimes,” she said in the letter, obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune.

Aughney took trips to Las Vegas, Disneyland and Hawaii and purchased a Camaro and a Waverunner, among other items. She wrote checks from the Weber School Foundation to cover credit card bills.
