A Sioux Falls man has been sentenced to 2 -1/2 years in federal prison for stealing more than $275,000 from the McLaughlin School District.
Jamie Lee Beisch, 34, reached a plea agreement in February in which he pleaded guilty to one count of theft from a public organization receiving federal funds. He was sentenced Monday in Aberdeen by U.S. District Court Judge Charles B. Kornmann.
Beisch, a former business manager for the McLaughlin School District, admitted stealing $277,368.51 in school funds between May 2007 and February 2009.
Beisch was also ordered to pay $284,771 in restitution to the school district, a figure that includes the embezzled funds and the school’s audit and travel expenses.
Also, a special assessment of $100 was imposed, and Beisch was ordered to serve a 3-year term of supervised release after he gets out of prison. There is no parole in the federal system.
Beisch must surrender to the U.S. Marshal or the designated Bureau of Prisons facility no later than July 7.
