SCRANTON – The United States Attorney’s Office for the
Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Raymond Patrick Snyder,
age 35, of York, Pennsylvania was charged in a criminal information on August
17, 2018, with embezzlement of funds by a bank employee.
According to United States Attorney David J. Freed, the
information alleges that Snyder, a former bank employee, embezzled
approximately $889,881 from the First National Bank on August 17, 2015.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. Assistant United States
Attorney Joseph J. Terz is prosecuting the case.
Informations are only allegations. All persons charged are
presumed to be innocent unless and until found guilty in court.
A sentence following a finding of guilt is imposed by the
Judge after consideration of the applicable federal sentencing statutes and the
Federal Sentencing Guidelines.
The maximum penalty under federal law for this offense is 30
years of imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and
a $250,000 fine. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the Judge is also
required to consider and weigh a number of factors, including the nature,
circumstances and seriousness of the offense; the history and characteristics
of the defendant; and the need to punish the defendant, protect the public and
provide for the defendant's educational, vocational and medical needs. For
these reasons, the statutory maximum penalty for the offense is not an accurate
indicator of the potential sentence for a specific defendant.
