Jordan Gillette- Two nuns embezzle aprox. 500,000 and use it on Vegas gambling

Summary: On December 10th, 2018, two nuns admitted to have embezzled 500,000 dollars and spent it all on gambling. Best Friends Sisters Mary Kreuper and Lana Chang were on the staff at St. James' Catholic School in Torrance, California (close to LA) have stated that they express "deep remorse" regarding their actions. Sources say they managed to get away with this by creating a separate bank account and storing the money there. It is believed that this didn't all happen overnight, it had been happening over the last 10 years. The sisters have been very cooperative with authorities, and no criminal charges will be placed on them.

Analysis: Honestly, this sounds like it's straight out of a movie and I love it. I think this is great, and you definitely don't hear something like this everyday. Before reading this article I had heard nothing about this whole situation, and now I'm glad I have. This article was written by the writing staff at BBC (the names weren't listed), and this article was written to show how everyone can always be a little evil, even nuns. This can be related back to August 2018 where two nun lunch ladies were found that they stole ~500,000 dollars over the course of three years.
