ROYAL OAK, Mich. (AP) — A former TV news anchor facing felony charges for embezzling $149,000 from a man she had dated and advised financially, has been found dead in her Detroit-area home.
Police Detective Don Swiatkowski tells The Detoit News that a relative found Suzanne Wangler "unresponsive" Saturday afternoon in her Royal Oak home.
He says Wangler was pronounced dead at 3:27 p.m. An autopsy has been scheduled.
Swiatkowski says a cause of death will not be confirmed without an autopsy.
The 42-year-old Wangler had retired last week from Lansing station WLAJ, where she worked under the name Suzanne Page. She had previously worked at WDIV-TV in Detroit.
She had been arraigned on felony charges of embezzlement by an agent and larceny by conversion. Each charge carried a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison if convicted.
