(MONTGOMERY)—Attorney General Troy King announced the arrest last night of a woman for theft of $7,500 from Alabama Public Television. Lagina Darice Brown Fulling, also known as Gina D. Brown, was arrested by special agents of the United States Marshal’s Gulf Coast Regional Task Force and taken to the Montgomery County Jail to await transport to the Jefferson County Jail. Fulling, 44, of Jefferson County, is a former employee of the Alabama Public Television Foundation.

Attorney General King’s Office presented evidence to a Jefferson County grand jury, resulting in Fulling’s indictment on September 19. Specifically, the indictment charges Fulling with one count of first-degree theft by deception, and one count of first-degree theft of property. Both counts involve theft of a check for $7,500, from AARP to Alabama Public Television.
No further information about the investigation or about Fulling’s alleged crimes other than that stated in the indictment may be released at this time.

If convicted, Fulling faces a maximum penalty of two to 20 years imprisonment and a fine of up to $10,000 for the class B felonies.

Attorney General King commended Assistant Attorney General Ben Baxley of his Public Corruption and White Collar Crime Division and Special Agent Gene Sisson of his Investigations Division. He gave special thanks to Sergeant Michael Herren and the Mountain Brook Police Department for assistance in this case.
