Nova Scotia Dentist Criticizes Short Sentence for Employee Theft

Nova Scotia Dentist Criticizes Short Sentence for Employee Theft

Dr. Phil Mintern, a dentist from the Halifax area, is speaking out against the short sentence given to a former employee who embezzled over $92,000 from his practice. The employee, Tamara Farnell, was sentenced to five months in jail but was released to house arrest after serving only five weeks. Dr. Mintern expressed disappointment, stating that the sentence does not reflect the severity of the crime or the impact it had on his practice. The theft was discovered over a period of time, with Farnell altering deposits on at least 267 occasions. Despite the financial and emotional toll, Dr. Mintern has launched a civil suit against Farnell, although he does not expect to recover the lost funds.

Former Attorney Solomon Slom Sentenced to 10 Years for Theft and Money Laundering

Solomon Slom, an 82-year-old former attorney and senior partner at Johannesburg law firm Fluxmans Incorporated, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison.

The charges stem from the misappropriation of approximately R39.8 million from an escrow account that was under his care. The case dates back to 2018 when Fluxmans acted as the escrow agent in a subscription agreement. The funds were supposed to remain in the escrow account until a dispute between contracting parties was resolved. However, Slom unlawfully accessed and used the funds, leading to his conviction and sentencing by the specialised commercial crimes court in Palm Ridge.
