A Texas woman shot and killed herself in front of a Walmart on Wednesday just hours before she was slated to be sentenced for embezzling $1.2 million.
Paige Moody Bisher, 43, of Spring, Texas, was facing up to life in prison after admitting to stealing $1.2 million from a small Houston company, where she was employed as a part-time administrative assistant, the Houston Chronicle reported.
Bisher admitted to embezzling the money in January and was slated to be sentenced by District Judge Nikita Harmon on Wednesday. Prosecutor Lester Blizzard said he was “planning on asking for a lengthy prison sentence for the first-degree felony theft of more than $300,000,” the Houston Chronicle reported.

Why Walmart? When you have just scored 1.2 million you can afford to do it in front of Neiman Marcus.
If she had kicked 50% upstairs to the Clinton Foundation she would be at a luncheon in her name right now as an honoree.
She would have been out in five years. Darwinism at work.
She was not sentenced which means she did not die as a convicted felon. I believe whatever money she still has can’t be touched in any kind of forfeiture procedures. Ken Lay did the same thing which kept his estate intact for his wife and children.
Can’t say that I blame her. Not being ‘diverse’ and likely not having English as second (or higher) language, meant that she was ON HER OWN. No ACLU to help her, no ‘Justice Department’ to demand ‘equity’, and no dropping the case to keep her from being deported (after conviction).
Only one way out, for a person like her.
life for stealing 1.2m sounds stiff
anyone here got a westlaw handy for guidelines
looks to me like its a level 22 for embezzling tween one and two and a half million....41-51 months
“She was not sentenced which means she did not die as a convicted felon.”
Incorrect. She was convicted. She just hadn’t been incarcerated.
L
shot herself in the chest....thats a woman
Sorry, don’t laugh at this woman. She was totally screwed up, had been a good employee, and possibly somebody else was manipulating her to steal the money.
She should have gone to sentencing but I suspect she wasn’t getting a lot of support from whoever set her up to do this.
An awful gesture, but that’s what suicides usually do. They think they’re “getting back” at people who hurt them and they’re so self-obsessed that they don’’t even think about the effect this will have on their kids, parents, friends or whatever.
Say a prayer for her and for those who had to deal with her suicide.
It is too late to say a prayer for her. Once you die your fate is sealed - heaven or hell.
“Clean up at the grocery entrance”
Convicted Felon. Where did she get the Gun, Walmart?
Her middle name sure fits. Moody
Yes she did die a convicted felon. Just because she wasnt yet sentenced does not mean she has not been convicted. Sheesh.
“She was not sentenced which means she did not die as a convicted felon. “
Last I heard we don’t sentence anyone till after the conviction ...

Ken Lay died of a heart attack. His conviction was vacated because it was under appeal at the time of his death. I’m unsure of what assets his family was able to keep.
Free Jon Corzine! He only stole $1.6 billion.
The taxpayers save the cost of incarceration, future parole hearings, and possibly future appeals of the conviction. She is no longer in a position to commit more crimes. Hmmm.
