Merced College embezzler gets 2 years in prison

A former Merced College employee convicted of embezzling more than $350,000 was sentenced Tuesday to serve two years in state prison.

Joseph Bisinger, 49, pleaded no contest late last year to one count of felony theft by false pretenses. While working as the college’s lead purchasing agent, prosecutors said, Bisinger charged the college for fake janitorial service at a Los Banos building no longer in use.

Bisinger charged the college for bogus work from November 2007 to February 2014 at the shuttered campus in Los Banos, prosecutors said. The college sold that campus in September 2007.
