During a recorded interview after her arrest, Murray acknowledged doing something she “probably should not have done” and said she was at fault, according to the agent's declaration. When an agent asked how many times she had redirected money, Murray replied, “Too many times.”

The declaration says Murray identified gambling as one reason for her actions. A review of her bank records found approximately $2.34 million in transactions at casinos and other gambling establishments between September 2022 and December 2025, primarily at MGM National Harbor Casino, Scarlett said.

Murray received about $406,440 in compensation from the software company between 2023 and 2025, according to the indictment and declaration.
