Lori Isenberg pleads guilty in Coeur d'Alene to embezzling $580K in housing funds

A Coeur d’Alene woman, who remains under investigation for the suspicious death of her husband in February, pleaded guilty Tuesday to embezzling more than a half million dollars from the North Idaho Housing Coalition.

Laurcene “Lori” Isenberg, 64, appeared at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday and pleaded guilty to three counts of wire fraud, which carries a maximum of 20 years in federal prison. U.S. District Court Judge Edward Lodge will sentence Isenberg April 30.

Isenberg was indicted in October on four counts after investigators say she embezzled about $580,000 from funds that were supposed to go to help poor people find affordable housing. She agreed to plead guilty to three counts of wire fraud in November.

Also on Tuesday, Isenberg’s daughters, Jessica F. Barnes, 36, and Amber A. Hosking, 39, were sentenced after they previously pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit program theft.
