NEW HAVEN — A former bank employee from New Britain has admitted to embezzling funds from account holders, according to a plea agreement filed in federal court Monday.

Carrie Caesar, 46, of New Britain, was an employee of Webster Bank between 2003 and 2016 — the time of the offense — according to federal prosecutors.

Caesar, in her time as an account manager, withdrew more than $500,000 from account holders’ certificate of deposit accounts at the bank and used the funds for personal use, according to a release Monday from the U.S. attorney’s office.

Prosecutors said Caesar targeted six customers who were older than 78.

Monday, Caesar pleaded guilty to one count of theft, embezzlement and misapplication by a bank officer and employee. She faces up to 30 years in prison for the crime, according to the release.

She is scheduled to be sentenced in May and is free after posting $150,000 bail.
