Arraignment is scheduled December 16th for former school bookkeeper who faces 15 felony counts for allegedly stealing more than $150,000 from the Tri-County R-VII School District.

Dana Maxwell is charged in Daviess County with seven counts of forgery, one count of fraudulent use of a credit card, and seven counts of theft.

The alleged thefts date back to August of 2012.  The case was filed on Thursday, and the defendant appeared before a judge on Friday.

Ms Maxwell turned herself in, and has since posted $100,000 cash bail.  According to online court documents, she also has waived her preliminary hearing, and is scheduled for Circuit Court arraignment next month.
