CULLMAN, Ala. (WHNT) — The former vice president of a Cullman bank is facing an embezzlement charge, federal court records show.

Kellie Johnson is charged with bank embezzlement. Court documents state Johnson embezzled approximately $2,376,325.07 between July 2013 and June 2023 from First Community Bank of Cullman while she was an employee there.

According to court records, Johnson “conducted unauthorized Automated Clearing House (ACH) transactions to pay personal expenses that cleared through First Community Bank of Cullman’s account with the Federal Reserve Bank in Atlanta, Georgia.”

First Community Bank in Cullman confirmed to News 19 that Johnson was the bank’s vice president, stating it discovered the crime was taking place in 2023. She was then removed from her position.

The bank also stated it did not suffer any financial loss as a result of this embezzlement, and no customer accounts were accessed.

Johnson is set for arraignment on April 24 at 9:30 a.m. at the federal courthouse in Huntsville.
