She admitted to officers that she took at least $5,000 since February, the arrest report said. But the company's owners told the police she stole well over $10,000. Kolinger told authorities she had been stealing because she was low on cash. Court records show she had been charged last November with writing bad checks, and she entered into a pretrial diversion program. Records indicate she recently paid the restitution owed in that case.
