BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA — A Gretna woman was arrested by East Baton Rouge Parish deputies on bank fraud charges after she was accused of unlawfully withdrawing thousands from a Siegen Lane bank.
Jari Williams, 34, allegedly used an Essential Credit Union customer's personal information, including social security number and bank account number, to withdraw $7,500 on Sept. 12.
Williams then allegedly returned to the bank to make another cash withdrawal but left the bank after a teller took her ID for verification. The bank later told deputies that the Siegen branch "did sustain a monetary loss associated with this incident."
According to an affidavit, Williams used a fraudulent driver's license with the victim's personal information to access the account, obtaining licenses with the information in December 2024 and September 2025.
