March 1, 2013 --Westchester County District Attorney Janet DiFiore announced today that
Jeremy Winter (DOB 09/03/82) of 51 Douglas Lane, Ridgefield, Connecticut, has been arraigned on a Felony Complaint charging him with:

  • three counts of Grand Larceny in the Second Degree, class “C” Felonies,
  • one count of Forgery in the Second Degree, a class “D” Felony,
  • one count of Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree, a class “E” Felony,
  • one count of Scheme to Defraud in the First Degree, a class “E” Felony,
  • regarding the theft of funds from bank depositors.

Winter was employed as a Branch Manager at TD Bank located at 107 Chatsworth Avenue in Larchmont, New York.  

Beginning in February of 2012, the defendant began making large transfers of U.S. currency out of several customers’ accounts into his own personal bank account or into a relative’s account totaling $739,000.  

The money was used to pay off the defendant’s personal loans and contractors he defendant hired to do home improvements.

In order to avoid detection, the defendant would “rob Peter to pay Paul,” basically take money from a new victim’s account in order to pay back older victims.

The defendant also forged a customer’s signature on a withdrawal slip in the amount of $110,000, thereby also creating a false business record.

The bank notified Larchmont Police and in September of 2012 the District Attorney’s Office joined in the investigation.

Winter was arrested by Larchmont Police on February 28, 2013 and arraigned on a Felony Complaint in Larchmont Village Court.

Bail was set at $100,000 cash or bond.

His next court date is May 14, 2013 in Westchester County Court.

The defendant faces a maximum sentence of 15 years in state prison on each of the top counts.

Assistant District Attorney Robert Mayes of the Economic Crimes Bureau is prosecuting the case.
