A former SARA administrative assistant pleaded guilty Tuesday to two counts of embezzlement in Albemarle County Circuit Court as part of a plea agreement.

A former Sexual Assault Resource Agency employee accused of embezzling money from the organization may plead guilty in connection with the incident next month.

Like any other business in a softening economy, the Sexual Assault Resource Agency has been cutting back on expenses and nonessential travel.

Impoverished fiscally, physically or emotionally, women, men and children throughout the world and even in the commonwealth are being exploited, and the Sexual Assault Resource Agency wants to do something about it.
