A 64-year-old Bismarck woman admits to embezzling money from the Sanford Medical Center auxiliary gift shop. But, she says the amount of money she owes isnt correct. Marlys Aune appeared in court Monday for a restitution hearing. The prosecution says Aune owes more than $273,000. Aune says she told a police investigator she took about $300 a week for three years, an amount closer to $45,000 and thats the amount she should owe the hospital. Witnesses testified that prior to Aunes hiring in 1996, the gift shop donated $305,000 in five years, and from 1996 to 2012 it only donated $26,000 to $30,000. Judge Sonna Anderson is taking the testimony under advisement.
