Highway Robbery: $7000

KSTP 5 Eyewitness News covered a local story at the top of tonight's 6:00 PM news... South Metro Principal Charged With Theft.
A former school principal has been charged with embezzlement after allegedly stealing over $6,000 from her former school.
Principal Sidney Tenney Brock (called Sidney Maxine Brock in the story and the complaint) of South Grove Elementary in Inver Grove Heights stole eight checks totaling up to $6850.

The first thought that came to my mind? It costs Minnesota taxpayers thousands of dollars to teach one student per year and you're getting bent out of shape over 68 hundred bucks?

Man, those Happy to Pay for a Better Minnesota folks have us snowed.

Not only that, but look at the school itself... I'd love to know what kind of Media Specialist, Paraprofessionals, and Other Lisenced Professionals they have and exactly what service they perform.
