Police search for former day home owner
POSTED AT 6:05 PM Thursday, December 14
Calgary police are looking for a woman who ran a day home in Southwest Calgary.
CTV first learned about Rosalie Maronese this past summer when angry parents and former day home employees said Maronese didn’t pay them what they were owed.
There weren’t any criminal charged in that case, but now police want her for something else.
Calgary police have an arrest warrant for a separate incident.
Officers tells CTV that she responded to two ads placed by Calgarians, each seeking a pair of season tickets to the Calgary Flames.
Police say she took 8000 dollars from one, $4000 from the other and sent them to the Saddledome to pick up their tickets.
However, when the unsuspecting victims went to claim their tickets they were told the tickets didn’t exist and that Maronese did not own any season passes.
Now, she is wanted for two counts of fraud.
In January, an employment agency operated by Maronese called “That Recruitment Company” pleaded guilty to operating without a license and direct selling without a licence.
Police believe Maronese has left her home in Cougar Ridge where angry parents and ex-dayhome employees picketed this summer to recover money they said she owed them.
Gord Southam gave Maronese a $3600 deposit to hold two spots for his kids in a daycare she never in fact owned.
He says he sued her and won in small claims court, but never collected.
And though it’s not for her daycare dealings, Southam says he’s glad the police are planning to charge Maronese with something.

I was scammed by Rosalie in Jan/04, when she promised to get me employment thru "That Recruiting Company". Same sad story as everyone else. I reported her to BBB, who already had some complaints,although I was the first one to take her to small claims court(naturally she didn't show)and of course I won. Tried a collection agency, but they couldn't reach her.My loss is small compared to most people ($600+get--yes a gst #--+ court cost, but still!!!!
