Tim Bedwell, a retired lieutenant with the North Las Vegas Police Department, and Michele Mosey were each charged with one count of comprehensive theft of $60,400 belonging to Lutheran Social Services of Nevada. The indictment alleges the funds were taken for personal gain.

Bedwell served as CEO of Lutheran Social Services, according to a 2024 tax filing. Mosey was listed as a director of the organization. The indictment identifies her as Michele Bedwell, but family court records indicate the couple divorced and she now goes by Michele Mosey.

Both defendants are scheduled to appear before Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus for an indictment hearing on Nov. 23. At that hearing, Holthus is also expected to consider a motion filed by attorney Craig Mueller seeking to dismiss the indictment against Mosey. Mueller argues that Mosey was not given notice that prosecutors intended to indict her, which he contends wrongly prevented her from participating in the grand jury proceedings.

As of Tuesday morning, Bedwell remained in custody at the Clark County Detention Center. It was not immediately clear whether he has retained legal counsel.

Lutheran Social Services of Nevada is a nonprofit organization that provides social services to residents in the Las Vegas Valley. The alleged theft represents a significant breach of public trust, particularly given Bedwell's background in law enforcement and his leadership role at the charity.

The case remains under review, and no trial date has been set.
