Former Crofton City Clerk Sentenced For Misdemeanor Theft

A former Crofton city employee has been fined for misdemeanor theft after admitting her role in stealing from the city in a local newspaper.

Nancy Foxhoven, the former city clerk for Crofton, was sentenced to a $500 fine by the Judge Donna Taylor of the Knox County Court last week. Court records show that a complaint was filed against Foxhoven to the Knox County Court on Thursday. Foxhoven entered an "admit" plea to the misdemeanor charge and was sentenced. Court records indicate she paid the fine in full on Thursday.

Foxhoven retired suddenly in 2015 from her role as city clerk. She later admitted that she had misappropriated city finds in a letter written to the Crofton Journal newspaper.
