PARIS, Tenn. (AP) -- A former Henry County court clerk has been arrested after $29,000 was found missing from her office.
According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, agents arrested Deanna Treece, of Springville, on Tuesday.
Treece was indicted by a grand jury after an audit by the state comptroller's office found approximately $29,000 had gone missing between 2007 and 2011 from the General Sessions Court where Treece worked.
The investigation revealed that Treece used checks that were sent in to open civil cases to replace money she took from the office. The computer system showed the fees to open the civil cases was still owed.
Treece was booked into the Henry County Jail on $10,000 bond. She is scheduled to appear in court on March 11.

Photographer facing child pornography charges
May 22, 2013 22:37 GMT
JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) -- Federal prosecutors say a professional photographer from Perry County has been charged with possessing child pornography.
The U.S. attorney's office for West Tennessee said Wednesday that Robert Gregory Dempsey, also known as Jesse Rockwell, has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Jackson on charges of possession and interstate transportation of child pornography.
Prosecutors say Dempsey owned Rockwell Photography. Prosecutors say he used social media and the Internet to promote his business throughout western and central Tennessee, including Nashville and the Perry County area.
If convicted, Dempsey could face up to 20 years in federal prison. Online federal court records do not show when he has a court date or if he has a lawyer.
