Bank forecloses on embezzler’s home


WARREN — A Trumbull County judge has ordered foreclosure on the Howland house where Debora L. Toda lived with her husband, Paul E. Pollis.

Toda, 50, was sentenced to 25 years in prison last spring for embezzling nearly $1.7 million from a dialysis clinic she worked for in Boardman. She is in the Ohio Reformatory for Women in Marysville.

Pollis, 41, was sentenced to one year in prison last spring for failing to obey the orders of a Warren police officer who tried to pull him over on Market Street near Forum Health Trumbull Memorial Hospital.

Pollis was sent to an Akron halfway house earlier this month to serve the last six months of his prison sentence.

Judge John M. Stuard of Trumbull County Common Pleas Court recently ruled in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, which Toda owes $218,482 plus interest for the home at 201 Southwinds Drive N.E.

The judge’s order says the house will be auctioned at sheriff sale at the direction of the bank.
