Sources say a man went into a building near the EverBank building on Adams Street just before 6 p.m. Tuesday, 'making threats.' SWAT units were on scene for hours.
Amanda Landon, 44, faces grand theft and organized fraud charges as she is accused of stealing from Joan Warwick Insurance, located in Neptune Beach.JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A Fernandina Beach woman was arrested on Oct. 2 and faces charges of grand theft and organized fraud, as she is accused of stealing"approximately $150,000" from her ex-employer, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
While the officer was on scene with Warwick, police say that Warwick"did not have any documentation supporting her claim." Warwick told police that she would retrieve all bank statements from her bank and then contact JSO for further investigation, the arrest report states. In a later phone call between Warwick and JSO, the arrest report reveals that Warwick told police that she never gave Landon permission to use her personal credit card for anything. Warwick also told JSO that she does not have an Amazon account, Instacart account, an Uber Eats account and did not make a Carnival Cruise Line purchase, according to the arrest report.
On Apr. 29, 2022, the arrest report states that Warwick had deposited $65,000 from her Edward Jones investment account to her personal checking account. Afterwards, Warwick told Landon to"pay off credit cards and the business line of credit with PNC Bank," but the arrest report states that Warwick did not pay off the business line of credit and had to pay another $25,000 to PNC Bank in June 2023 to pay it off.
Over a 7-month period from April 2022 to October 2022, Landon deposited the following amounts of money into her personal account on a monthly basis, according to the arrest report:"The large amounts of deposits in the suspect's bank account confirms victim statement about the business line of credit not being paid off and the funds being moved into the suspects' personal account," the arrest report states.
On Aug. 7, 2023, the arrest report states that JSO made contact with"victim" David Thompson, who stated that on May 20, 2023, he wrote a check to Joan Warwick Insurance Company and mailed it to the business's location. Thompson told police that the check cleared his account several days later and in July, he received a notice of cancellation of his policy from Heritage Insurance, according to the arrest report.
