Ellisville deputy clerk sentenced to 4 years for skimming water bills
SUMMARY: Emerald Wuertz, a former deputy clerk from Ellisville, has been sentenced to four years in prison followed by two years of probation after pleading guilty to embezzlement. Wuertz was accused of manipulating city water fund payments to pocket some of the money. Discrepancies in department records led to her dismissal in April 2021 and her arrest in September 2023 by the Mississippi State Auditor’s Office. She initially faced charges of redirecting $41,246.20 from water bill payments but must now repay a total of $43,955.45, including fines and court costs.
