Calif. State Bar Embezzler Gets 32 Months in Prison
February 6th, 2010
With a light kiss on the right cheek from one of her lawyers and no chance to say goodbye to her elderly parents, Sharon Pearl went to prison Friday for embezzling more than $615,000 from the State Bar of California. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Morris Jacobson sentenced the Bar’s former director of real property operations to 32 months, after finding she had used the stolen money to live a “very comfortable lifestyle well above her means.” Said the judge during the hearing: “The loss here is mammoth.”
