A Vancouver man is accused of embezzling more than $500,000 from an electronic manufacturing service company where he worked.
Tho Kim Hyunh, 45, appeared in Clark County Superior Court on Thursday on suspicion of 12 counts of money laundering, 13 counts of first-degree theft, 132 counts of second-degree theft, 12 counts of first-degree identity theft and 28 counts of forgery.
Judge Suzan Clark ordered him jailed in lieu of $200,000 bail. Clark said he will need to hire an attorney to represent him, as he doesn’t qualify for court-appointed counsel. He is scheduled to be arraigned on the charges Oct. 16.
Hyunh managed finances for Vancouver-based Integrated Manufacturing Solutions Inc. when he falsified documents to hide his unauthorized purchases and withdrawals from the company’s bank account in 2011 and 2012, according to a court affidavit by Clark County sheriff’s Detective Kevin Harper. Hyunh was terminated in November 2012 when the alleged fraud was discovered, Harper wrote.
