Albuquerque, NM- September 9, 2009-
Some people just won't go away! I thought this guy would be in jail by now but it seems that he is still walking the streets and ripping people off. According to Albuquerque Police Department investigators in 2006 Baca created false accounts, signed company checks over to himself and fabricated employees in some cases using the names of former Skillstorm workers. He was using what we term ghost employees, people who worked for the company or had shown interest in the company or just people he knew," Lt. Harold Prudencio told KRQE told KRQE News 13. "He would use their information, say that they worked and turn in timesheets for these people."
The California owner of Skillstorm alerted police after he noticed suspicious activity.
Police believe Baca stole at least $60,000 from the company and alleged they followed the paper trial to a bank account in Baca's name.
Detectives also alleged Joe Stidham, currently the police chief of Bosque Farms, also stole $2,500 from the business by signing over company checks to himself.
