A former State Department budget analyst has pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $650,000 from the agency over a two-year span, according to the US Attorney’s Office in Washington, DC.
Levita Almuete Ferrer, 64, of Maryland, admitted to abusing her signature authority over a State Department checking account between March 2022 and April 2024 in her capacity as a senior budget analyst in the department’s Office of the Chief of Protocol.
She wrote 60 checks to herself and three checks to someone else she had a personal relationship with, prosecutors said.
She printed and signed each check before depositing all 63 checks into her personal bank accounts.
The checks totaled $657,347.50, according to prosecutors.
Ferrer, also known as Levita Brezovic, attempted to hide the scheme through the use of a Quickbooks account.
She would enter her name as the payee on checks in Quickbooks and print them, prosecutors said.

We’ll see.....how the heck a 64 year old is gonna pay back thst kind of money is beyond me.
She will embezzle it from the next Democrats administration that will instantly hire her back, with a promotion and a pay increase.
Surprise, surprise, surprise. An Obama Democrat belonging to the race of professional victims embezzling taxpayer’s money? They used to hang bank robbers for much less stolen money.
Dark days in America.
All of the above and 20 years in the new Alcatraz lock up.
401k, pension etc. I worked for an insurance company where they caught a lady embezzling $40,000 thru claims. She was given the option of being prosecuted or paying it back. She cashed out her 401k to pay for it.
Looking at that chest full of medals, she’s probably guilty of stolen valor too.
Whatever the punishment it isn’t enough. F these criminals.
