A Camden County woman sentenced for embezzling from Lower Currituck Volunteer Fire Department while employed there was originally the whistleblower for improper use of funds by the department’s chief and his son, the battalion chief, according to both her lawyer and the state prosecutor.

Beloved Haven, a Currituck County-based nonprofit, set up a mobile outreach van Tuesday in Elizabeth City in the first of many planned regional stops to serve women who are survivors of or who are vulnerable to human trafficking.
