Stealing from Adams County Crime Victims

Tomi Prohaska-Sanchez, a 55 year old Adams County victims’ advocate has been changed with with multiple counts of embezzlement of public property, theft and misconduct.

It is reported that the 16-year veteran Prohaska-Sanchez personally used gift cards from Wal-Mart and King Soopers bought by the sheriff's department to aid crime victims in need. Prohaska-Sanchez admitted to buying groceries and cigarettes to Adams County investigators during an interview.

Investigators say this has only been going on for only a couple of months.

The Adams County Sheriff’s Department has placed Prohaska-Sanchez on administrative leave without pay.

Prohaska-Sanchez is due in court on November 10th at 9:30am.

  1. Tomi has been abusing her position as a Victims'Advocate for years using training money for family benefits and bullying and harassing members of staff and volunteers. Volunteers and staff members have been making complaints about Tomi for over five years in writing but she was always protected by other staff. Tomi used intimidation and sometimes outright lies against those she did not like and she did not like you if you were honest and Christian. She enlisted other staff members to bully those she did not like.

  6. More alleged reports were coming in about large amounts of money missing from other departments. Tomi committed suicide on her court date but would still retain her benefits as she never went to trial.

  11. Tomi was a good person! I worked side by side with her as an Adams CO advocate and we became close friends. I moved to AZ and would stay with Tomi and her two girls when I would come to town. You should not talk ill of her! Did you walk in her she's? She must of had such pain and loneliness. Rest in Peace my friend, fly with the Angels! Anonymous, shame on you, your such a coward you cannot even say your name! You call yourself a Christian? You better take a closer look at your horns! I'm sorry Tomi! I'm sorry for your girls as well.
