    A Rothschild woman was convicted last week of 15 criminal charges connected to an investigation into mail thefts and unauthorized cash withdrawals from people and businesses in the area.

    Nacirema H. Frisch, 34, was charged in April 2023 in Marathon County Circuit Court with organizing financial crimes, fraud against a financial institution, multiple counts of wire fraud and theft, mail fraud and bail jumping. she was convicted on Oct. 21 during a plea and sentencing hearing that covered six separate cases.

    An investigation began in March 2023 after a fraud specialist at a Wausau-area credit union reported fraudulent incidents on multiple accounts. According to court documents, Frisch stole outgoing mail from at least one business. On multiple occasions, Frisch deposited fraudulent checks into victims’ accounts, then withdrew those funds and tens of thousands more over the course of several days at ATM drive-up machines. She was identified in part through security footage.

    Online court records show a string of charges and allegations in multiple counties.

    Circuit Judge Suzanne O’Neill presided over the Oct. 21 hearing and sentenced Frisch to five years initial confinement in prison followed by five years of extended supervision. Frisch was also ordered to pay roughly $40,000 in restitution to a range of victims in the case.

    Frisch, who has been jailed since her 2023 arret, was granted 557 days of credit for time served while awaiting trial.
