An insurance adjuster who embezzled more than $45,000 from the Woodland Hills company where he worked pleaded guilty to conspiracy and fraud charges and was sentenced to a year in county jail and five years probation, a prosecutor said Thursday.
Van Nuys Superior Court Judge Michael Kellogg also ordered Jacinto Antonio Barrientos to pay $45,199 in restitution to Unitrin Insurance Co., where the San Fernando Valley man, 35, committed the crimes over a 13-month period beginning in June 2005, prosecutor Loren Naiman said.
