PITTSBURGH, Pa – A former law firm office manager has been
sentenced in federal court to 21 months imprisonment, three years of supervised
release, and ordered to pay $827,020.39 in restitution on his conviction of one
count of bank fraud, United States Attorney Scott W. Brady announced today.
United States District Judge David S. Cercone imposed the
sentence on Anthony Calaiaro, 34, of 5072 Grove Road, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
(Whitehall).
According to information presented to the court, from June
2014 through approximately April 2016, Calaiaro, who was employed as an Office
Manager for a law firm, wrote checks to himself and forged a partner’s
signature on the checks. Calaiaro then cashed the forged checks at various
locations and used the funds for his own personal use. The total loss is
approximately $827,020.39.
Assistant United States Attorney Lee J. Karl prosecuted this
case on behalf of the government.
United States Attorney Brady commended the Federal Bureau of
Investigation and the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police for the investigation leading
to the successful prosecution of Calaiaro.
