EAST LIVERPOOL, Ohio — A woman already charged with stealing more than $150,000 in charitable donations was arrested for domestic violence charge just days after she appeared in court on aggravated theft charges.
Amanda Kiger, 52, was arrested Saturday and charges were filed Sunday. A no-contact order was issued involving a male victim. Kiger pleaded not guilty to the domestic violence charge Monday and is due back in court June 3. A $5,000 personal recognizance bond was set in that case.
Kiger’s latests arrest comes days after she entered a not guilty plea last week to aggravated theft and telecommunications fraud charges filed by the Ohio Attorney General’s Office. Prosecutors allege she pocketed more than $150,000 in donations while serving as director of River Valley Organizing, an East Liverpool nonprofit she founded that describes itself as a citizen-based community organization working for a safer and cleaner Ohio River Valley.
