WEST BURLINGTON, Iowa (AP) - A Danville woman has been charged with theft, accused of stealing nearly $139,000 from an eastern Iowa car dealership where she had worked.
The Hawk Eye reports that 42-year-old Jeanna Joan Jones has been charged with first-degree theft. If convicted, she faces up to 10 years in prison.
Investigators say Jones was involved in a scam in which she overpaid commissions to a 70-year-old sales associated at Deery Brothers in West Burlington. Prosecutors say the overpayments started in January 2008 and ran through 2016.

There is no attorney listed for Jones in online court filings. A call to her home Wednesday rang unanswered.
