An Oklahoma City woman and president of the Briarwood Homeowners Association was charged Tuesday in Cleveland County District Court with embezzling more than $9,000 from fellow homeowners.
Jade Renne Gilbert, 34, was charged with one felony count of embezzlement, court records show.
According to an affidavit, the reporting party and immediate past president of the Briarwood Homeowners Association called a meeting of association members to vote Gilbert out of office and "reclaim the books" to have records audited.
Association members identified $9,881 worth of unauthorized expenditures, according to the reports.
Gilbert's attorney, at Gilbert's police interview, said the woman "wants to confess, make restitution and put this behind her," according to the affidavit.
