LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A woman accused of stealing $114,000 from her New Albany employer was set to face federal charges in court Friday.

The U.S. attorney says 27-year-old Jennifer Jekel, of Marysville, is charged with wire fraud. Police believe Jekel used credit cards from HMS Global Maritime for personal expenses in 2011.

The U.S. Attorney says Jekel's managers started asking questions after a trip to Las Vegas.

Jekel surrendered to authorities on Dec. 27.
