Before being sentenced, Peters insisted everything she did was to try to get rid of what she believed was fraud and that she believed it was for the greater good.
At the hearing, Judge Matthew Barrett told Peters she never took her job as clerk seriously.
“These are all active decisions you made that cost our county significantly, but also more importantly cost you greatly,” Barrett said.
Peters’ attorneys said they plan to appeal the sentence.
