Felony charges have been filed against a former employee of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and the owner of a technology vendor in connection with an alleged $22 million contracting and money laundering scheme. According to the district attorney, the duo is accused of engaging in a record-setting scam that involved steering contracts and receiving kickbacks. The investigation revealed that the ex-employee, who served as a tech manager, played a significant role in siphoning funds from the district through fraudulent contracts. The case has prompted a thorough probe into potential corruption within the LAUSD.
