CAccording to Insurance Fraud Prosecutor Greta Gooden Brown, Shirley Welch, 59, of Freehold, was ordered by Superior Court Judge Patricia Del Bueno Cleary in Monmouth County to pay more than $4,400 in fines and restitution. The sentence followed Welch’s Oct. 16 guilty plea to theft by deception.
At the guilty plea hearing, Welch, the former owner and administrator of Pineland Rest Home in Englishtown, admitted that between Jan. 1, 2000 and Feb. 20, 2002, she illegally accepted cash from the owner/operator of the now defunct Belmar Hometown Pharmacy.
