Federal jury indicts two former Detroit Public Schools employees

Detroit News reports:

A federal grand jury today indicted two former Detroit Public Schools employees on fraud conspiracy charges.

Charged are Toni D. Gilbert, 44, of Detroit, a former DPS payroll manager, and Anton V. Carter, 55, of Detroit, a former employee who continued to receive paychecks after he retired and was no longer entitled to receive them, the indictment alleges. Carter was receiving disability checks from DPS at the same time, the indictment alleges.

It's alleged the fraud involved more than $400,000 paid out between 2001 and 2005.

Great moments in public education.
