FROM WXIX.COM -
A southwestern Indiana church's former secretary faces theft charges for allegedly embezzling more than $51,000 in church funds.
State Police say 45-year-old Denise Purcell of Vincennes was arrested Wednesday on four counts of theft. She remained jailed Wednesday afternoon at the Knox County Jail on a $6,500 bond.
Purcell had been the administrative assistant and financial secretary at Community United Methodist Church in Vincennes.
Police say an investigation that began in January found that Purcell allegedly used two church credit cards to purchase numerous items for her personal use between February 2007 and August 2010. That amount totaled more than $51,000.
Purcell had worked at the church for about nine years before she resigned in September 2010
