It ensured we got most of the money back. Had the case been prosecuted, the reality is that we MIGHT have seen $50 a month for the balance of the time owed following a release to parole supervision.
While the case would have been (at the time) a first-degree felony with a 5-99 or life sentencing range, the former employee would likely have gotten no more than 15 years. Parole eligibility would have come after about two calendar years, with a likely set-off on the first two votes. So, restitution payments would not really have started for about four to five years and wouldn't have been substantial even though the full nut would have been included in the sentence and judgment.
