A Green Country woman pleaded guilty to embezzlement, but isn't going to jail and won't have to give any money back.

Tana Carter, 37, is the treasurer in Gore, which is near Muskogee.

While she pleaded guilty, Carter said she didn't do anything wrong.

A judge did not order her to repay any of the $60,000.

She's received a five-year deferred sentence.

The town was bonded so it will be reimbursed for the lost money.

Carter has until Sunday to resign.
