The former president of the Oregon Retailers of Cannabis Association will start his two-year prison sentence Thursday after he pleaded guilty to stealing more than $700,000 from a dozen credit unions and a bank.
In addition, Nicholas J. Saulsberry will be required to pay $737,573 in restitution, according to court documents.
From January 2014 to July 2016, Saulsberry, 30, created websites that claimed to be legitimate businesses that were seeking new employees.
