A judge today sentenced Keele Maynor to 42 months in jail and she must spend 10 years on probation after she is released.
Ms. Maynor, a former Chattanooga city worker, pleaded guilty to faking breast cancer and bilking the city out of about $100,000 in paid leave time.
She also was told to pay $54,000 in restitution.
Her defense team was hoping Judge Don Poole would allow her to pay restitution despite the fact she now only makes about $10 an hour at a local factory. Her fraud reached far beyond the city into the coffers of private organizations as well, who paid for her to go on trips to Florida while she supposedly battled the disease.
