<text>  CNNA woman who claims she was injured in the Boston Marathon bombing has been charged with stealing money from funds set up for the victims. Joanna Leigh claims the indictment is retribution for her vocal criticism of the way One Fund Boston disbursed the funds. Authorities say Leigh, 41, collected almost 40,000 from One Fund and other sources after claiming to have suffered a brain injury during the attack. They say she received 8,000 payment from One Fund Boston, which was set up to compensate bombing victims. Shes also accused of receiving 1,700 from a school fundraiser, collecting more than 9,000 in contributions from an online fundraiser and getting more than 18,000 in benefits from the Massachusetts Victims for Violent Crime compensation fund. The indictment says she also accepted free medical treatment. No one is contesting that Leigh was at the marathon on April 15, 2013, the day of the attack. But Boston Police and Suffolk County investigators say she wasnt hurt. She apparently did not claim any injury or seek any medical treatment until about two weeks later. When she did begin to make those claims, she billed herself as a hero who ran toward the second blast, authorities said. Leigh says the indictment is payback for her criticism of One Fund. She and others have claimed they werent properly compensated by the fund because of the way it calculated payments. If someones injury didnt require an overnight hospital stay, he or she received 8,000. Those who were hospitalized got 125,000 or more. I dont think this is about me; I think this is because I spoke out about The One Fund, she told the Boston Globe on Thursday. I think this is about killing the messenger. Leigh will be arraigned Monday. She intends to plead not guilty. The indictment comes as Dzhokar Tsarnaev stands trial for the bombing that killed three and left more than 260 people maimed or injured. CNNs Sam Stringer contributed to this report .
