Livid judge throws book at embezzler who took $1 MILLION from Chicago museum
A HIGH-LIVING mom who funded her expensive tastes by stealing nearly $1 million from Chicago’s famous Field Museum will cool her heels in the slammer!
Data specialist Caryn Benson raked in more than $900,000 over a six-year period starting in 2008 by pocketing cash payments for museum memberships!
She also kept cash when patrons paid for drink tickets at special events at the natural history museum!
Then she used the lifted loot to splurge on lavish shopping sprees, loading up on jewelry, a $1,500 gold chain, Gucci shoes and a $1,400 handbag.
