She paid back pennies on the dollar and never had to stop "selling" insurance any of the times. Embezzling from companies is the same. A girl I dated and a friends mom(different companies) both stole over 100K and they both got probation and had to pay back less than 10% of what they actually stole.
Yep, and if it's smaller sometimes there's even less consequence.

Car dealership I worked for hired a new finance manager.

Co worker - Oh this guy again?
Me - he was here before?
Co worker - Yeah, he got caught stealing 15k a couple years ago
Me - What? Why is he back
Co worker - The owner is stupid.

One month later he was fired, Stole another 15K. Law enforcement was never involved.
