South Jersey Woman Stole $175,000 From New Jersey Senior Community Account


TOMS RIVER, N.J. — Alicia Campbell, 37, of Mays Landing, has been charged with multiple offenses, including tampering with public records, forgery, and obstruction of justice, in connection with an ongoing case involving theft and financial crimes, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office announced on Wednesday.

First Assistant Prosecutor Michael T. Nolan, Jr. confirmed the new charges stem from Campbell’s attempts to delay court proceedings in a separate prosecution for theft, financial facilitation, and forgery related to her former role as Lifestyle Director of the Greenbriar Oceanaire Community & Golf Course, a senior living community in Ocean Township. According to authorities, Campbell misappropriated over $175,000 from the community between January 2019 and January 2022 by purchasing personal items and funneling association funds through Venmo transactions to herself.

Campbell was initially indicted on theft and related charges in January 2024 and was arraigned in February. However, over the summer, Campbell sought repeated adjournments of her case, citing the urgent medical needs of her minor child, who she claimed was receiving leukemia treatment in Philadelphia and later in Texas. In support of these claims, Campbell submitted documents purportedly from medical professionals at Texas Children’s Hospital, detailing her child’s treatment regimen.


However, prosecutors grew suspicious of the documents’ authenticity after noticing inconsistencies, such as incorrect addresses and the lack of verifiable contact information for the supposed doctor. Detectives from the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Economic Crimes Squad launched an investigation, discovering that the documents were forgeries and that the hospital had no record of Campbell or her child.

“Campbell was charged with tampering with public records or information, impersonation, forgery, obstruction of justice, and making an unsworn false statement to authorities,” the Prosecutor’s Office stated. Campbell was taken into custody on October 29 without incident at her Mays Landing residence and is currently held at the Ocean County Jail pending a detention hearing.

The original investigation into Campbell’s alleged theft revealed she used her position at the Greenbriar Oceanaire Community & Golf Course to divert funds intended for community events and services. Authorities say she misused over $81,000 for personal purchases and transferred an additional $94,000 through a series of deceptive Venmo transactions.

Campbell’s detention hearing has not yet been scheduled. Further details on her court proceedings are expected in the coming weeks.
