After contacting Walmart, security was able to identify 40-year-old Lori Dofner of Butler as the suspect. Dofner was employed at Tri County Workforce Investment Board where she would have had access to a spreadsheet with all the gift card information.
Dofner was interviewed by Butler Police and admitted to having access to the spreadsheet and spending the money. The money was transferred to her cash app from the card where she was then able to spend the money.
Dofner was charged with access device fraud-use of another’s device without authorization.
