Woman Charged With Stealing Money From School District

The U.S. Attorney has charged a Berks County woman with stealing approximately $92,000 from the Wilson School District while she worked in the district's finance office.

OMG, I can't believe this, Tina was always a very nice and respectable women. She was a good friend to my family for many many years. What would make someone do something like this. This is so sad... I don't even know how to express how my family is feeling.

How in the world can something like that happen and no one notice until this point in time? It's safe to say that most people in school district administrations are products of our public education system, and are simply too stupid to understand when they are being ripped off.

not just another white collar crime

It's obvious to me that the district lacks in audits in the finance dept. How much money or years has she gotten away with this..This is an outrage. What was her intention with the letter being sent to the CIA?? The wilson school district needs to be ashamed for allowing this to happen for so many years!!

Wow, that is a nice extra income to have been receiving. I wonder why the external auditors did not catch this. The taxpayers in the district should applaud the person who did catch it. That is one smart person.

How the heck does no one notice $92,000.00 missing over a 7 year period?GREED is taking over and it's not stopping. It is only getting worse.

I'm not sure but I think the Township of Spring is working on another great idea - firewood. I don't know if it'll be free or not...time will tell. Ask the supers...they'll know the details.

I saw an ingenious employee last week. He was splitting firewood at that recycling center. He was using the township's big back hoe/loader.
And he was really good at it. He split it then loaded it, probably to take to the supervisors to show them how well the process works.

Who says they don't recycle? I guess he is starting a new program there where they will split your firewood for free. I can't wait because I have a fireplace too and would like to use that service too.
Or maybe they're going to sell the split wood? Either way the new firewood splitting program is another great and innovative idea.

They are great because they are always thinking of the taxpayers....I love Spring Township!

If you look you will find a lot of waste in all of our schools. You'll find filthy bathrooms and classrooms. You'll find employees and custodians wasting plenty of time and money. You'll see people keeping their jobs when they aren't doing their job.
Stealing, it comes in all shapes and sizes in school districts.
