4/17/08 Reward offered for missing National Century exec

A reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of former National Century Financial Enterprises executive Rebecca S. Parrett.

On March 13, Parrett was convicted in U.S. District Court in Columbus of securities fraud, money laundering and other charges related to the collapse of Dublin-based National Century.

Federal Judge Algenon L. Marbley allowed Parrett to return to her home in Arizona, where she was to be on house arrest pending sentencing. An arrest warrant was issued after she didn't show up by March 26 to be fitted for an electronic monitor.

The U.S. Marshal Service is offering the reward but won't say how much it is. Anyone with information is asked to call 614-469-5540.

Parrett has health-related issues and a parrot tattoo on her left arm.
