BEND, OR -- Capping a 10-month investigation, the former head of a local sober living facility was arrested Thursday on 10 counts of Aggravated Theft.
In July of 2023, the vice president of D.A.W.N.S. House (Directly Assisting Women Newly Sober) reported someone had stolen from the nonprofit. Bend Police reached out to a financial investigator at the Oregon Department of Justice for help in the investigation, and determined there was probable cause to arrest former Executive Director Dawn Holland.
A Deschutes County Grand Jury indicted 51-year-old Holland last week and the court issued an arrest warrant. She was taken into custody Thursday at the Bend Police station.
