A Fond du Lac woman convicted of embezzling over 200 thousand dollars from her former employer in Dodge County will spend some time behind bars. On Tuesday, Dodge County Circuit Court Judge Brian Pfitzinger sentenced 47 year old Tessa Hilt to 18 months of initial confinement and 24 months of extended supervision, as well as a withheld sentence of 5 years probation. She must also pay about 230 thousand dollars in restitution. In November, Hilt pleaded no contest to 3 counts of theft of a business setting. Hilt was accused of taking the money from Waas Boring and Cable Company in Lomira. She was the office manager from 2009 until 2014, when she left her position and had filed a lawsuit claiming sexual harassment or discrimination in the workplace. The company found the financial discrepancies while preparing a defense against the lawsuit.
