NYC hospital worker in $1.2M toner theft sentenced

A former New York City hospital worker who admitted embezzling $1.2 million from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center by ordering printer toner, stealing it and then reselling it has been sentenced to 7 ½ years in prison. In a deal with prosecutors, Marque Gumbs pleaded guilty in July to grand larceny. As part of the plea agreement, prosecutors recommended a sentence of 2 ½ to 7 ½ years in state prison. Gumbs could have received up to 25 years in prison if he’d been convicted at trial.
