‘I felt I had no other option than to go to law enforcement,’ he said. 
‘We noticed there were a lot of handwritten checks being deposited into her bank account.’

Long did not send the bank statements until August 5. The documents were missing pages and looked ‘unusual,’ the franchise owner said. Going to the bank for authentication of said documents, he was told those had been doctored.
Fisher and Long were scheduled to meet at her bank on August 11, to go through the documents.
It never happened, instead Long sent her boss a long text, resigning from her job: ‘she was resigning, or she could stay in some sort of remote capacity, or I could terminate her,’ Fisher said.
‘She gave me three options, essentially of how we could proceed.’
The pair would not meet again until the Long family tragedy hit the media, and after learning of the family’s fate, Fisher said he is not interested in recovering the stolen loot.
