A Hallandale Beach couple is accused of quietly bleeding more than $180,000 from a local construction company over several years, a trail that police say ended with their arrests in Coral Springs on Friday, July 10, 2026. Oral Ollivierre, 39, and Sandra Permaul, 41, were taken into custody and booked into the Broward County Main Jail after investigators alleged a long-running scheme involving unauthorized checks, cash withdrawals and payments routed to people who were never on the company’s payroll.
Owner’s Paper Trail Sparks Criminal Probe
According to Hallandale Police Department records, the construction company owner discovered that a substantial amount of money was missing and flagged the discrepancies for investigators. Detectives then dug through bank statements and subpoenaed records, tracing what they say was a pattern of irregular transactions.
The owner told detectives he hired Permaul around 2017 and later promoted her to office manager, giving her responsibility for writing checks, paying employees and managing the company’s finances. Bank records obtained through subpoenas allegedly show Permaul wrote roughly $64,700 in checks from one company account and about $42,052 from a second account, and that she withdrew roughly $113,700 in cash, according to the affidavit.
