A Michigan man has admitted to stealing nearly $900,000 from his employer over three years. Federal prosecutors say 51-year-old Peter Paulus of Port Huron pleaded guilty last Friday to wire fraud. Court documents show that between late 2020 and mid-2023, Paulus worked for a countertop company near Detroit, where he diverted customer credit card payments into his own accounts. He even faked receipts to make the transactions look legitimate. Paulus is scheduled to be sentenced May 19 and could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
