In the courtroom this morning, Mundy said "It was never about money. It was about a woman searching for affection."
According to court documents, Mundy's claim of having Lymphoma began to unravel April 25 when her co-workers went to surprise her at Greene Memorial Hospital, where she said she was receiving treatment. But, according to police, Mundy wasn't there. The next day, April 26, Mundy resigned from her position and the Ohio Masonic Home contacted Springfield police.
Prior to her employer discovering Mundy lied about having cancer, two fundraisers were held for her at Bogey's Bar & Grill on Springfield Xenia Road. Employees also reportedly donated money at work-related fundraisers, according to court documents.
Officers tracked down $5,750 reportedly donated in 2012 and 2013 and charged Mundy with theft. She turned herself into authorities May 16.
