On May 28, Cynthia Yancey, former secretary-treasurer of American Federation of Government Employees Local 3840, pleaded guilty in the Hamilton County, Ohio Court of Common Pleas to misdemeanor theft from the Cincinnati-based union. She then was ordered to pay court costs. Yancey previously had made restitution in the amount of $4,255 after being indicted on April 8. The actions follow a probe by the U.S. Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards.
