(KMZA)--The former Marshall County Clerk has been sentenced to more than two   years in prison for felony misuse of public funds.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt, in a news release, said District Judge John Weingart Monday sentenced 44-year-old Sonya Stohs, of Marysville, to 32 months in prison.

The prison sentence is to be followed by 24 months post-release supervision.

In addition, Stohs was ordered to pay $372,003 in restitution to Marshall County.

Stohs pleaded guilty to the charge in November.

The charge stemmed from an investigation by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Secret Service that showed between May 2013 and April 2019, Stohs used funds belonging to Marshall County to pay for various personal items.

The case was prosecuted by the Kansas Attorney General's Office.
