Deborah Hughes Palmer, former director of the New River Valley Agency on Aging, was sentenced Wednesday in Pulaski County Circuit Court after pleading guilty to embezzling money from her former employer.

Palmer, of Dublin, was sentenced to two years on each of the 20 charges. Judge Robert Turk ordered that half of the sentences run concurrently and half to run consecutively. In all, she will serve two years of a 20-year sentence, plus pay $144,425 in restitution to the Agency on Aging.

She plead guilty to 20 of the 38 charges on April 16, 2008.

Palmer was originally charged with 38 counts of obtaining money under false pretenses. She was accused of taking more than $144,000 between 2001 and 2006 from the Agency of Aging.

Palmer, who was immediately taken into custody following her trial, is being held at the New River Valley Regional Jail waiting for the Virginia Department of Corrections to transfer her to prison.
