I think she knew she was done,

Westmoreland County detectives reviewed the restaurant's lottery account statements, in which they discovered the owner had deposited more than $102,000 of her personal funds to make up for the loss.

Too little,too late it would appear

It could help in court proceedings moving forward

$2,000.00 or more is felony theft in PA. If the value of the property taken is $2,000.00 or more, the offender faces felony charges.

A good attorney could argue only the winning tickets have value, the losers are worth zero. If she won less then 2K on any given day she should only be charged with a misdemeanor like the shoplifters are.

Over the last several months, detectives investigated Morris for the alleged theft of instant tickets from the machine. Since she was an administrator for the machine, she reportedly told officials, she had the ability to play scratch-off games without paying for the tickets she received.
