LOS ANGELES -- An Inglewood woman is accused of embezzling $1.6 million dollars from her boss to fund a lavish lifestyle.Detectives say Holly Daunielle Martin-Campbell, 37, stole the money while working as an administrative secretary at Blue Daisy Cement Products near Gardena. Campbell used the money to buy a home in a gated community next to Hollywood Park, purchase a $22,000 Ducati motorcycle for her husband and a BMW sport utility vehicle for herself, eat at expensive restaurants and attend sporting events and concerts, according to L.A. County Sheriff's detective Christopher Derry. Martin-Campbell was arrested Tuesday on felony charges of grand theft and forgery.
Her boss says he had no idea she had served a 16-month prison sentence in the late 1990s for credit card fraud when he hired her in 2002.
Martin-Campbell was in charge of accounts receivable. Her job was to process the incoming checks from customers, Detective Derry said.
