So it took the County over SIX years to see that something was wrong. What kind of auditing system does the county have ? And who is to say this isn't happening in other county departments.
The solution is to do way the having elected Registers of Deeds in NC, and have ROD's hired by the County Manager, just like every other department head (except Sheriff, and that probably needs to be done as well).

This! Elected Registers of Deeds and County Sheriffs are not held to the same level of scrutiny as non-elected officials. The Sherrif literally has no oversight other than the County commissioners who hold the purse strings and can slash his/her budget, but that will ultimately hurt emergency response and would not be looked at favorably by the community.
Interestingly enough, her editorial about perks was about 6 years ago . Maybe she was trying to prove her point and show just how incompetent/ineffective government could be? So she decided to embezzle money to highlight the problem? Surprised & saddened that it took 6 years for them to catch her?!
What would really be funny is if she used part of the 900k to post her 700k bail. Maybe she hasn't touched any of it and was just waiting to see how long it would take for someone to come knocking.

If that was her plan (and I'd say there's no way it was) it failed miserably when actual charges were filed.
