St. Louis Community College Accuses Employee Of Embezzling $5.4 Million
St. Louis Community College is suing one of its workers over allegations of financial mismanagement. The filing alleges the employee diverted more than $5 million in state worker-training money over roughly a decade.
"It was money that was intended to help people to advance in their careers and help employers with their existing employees," said the college’s chancellor, Jeff Pittman. He added, "It's frustrating and discouraging to believe that anybody would take advantage of a situation like this."
Donald Robison of the college's Workforce Solutions Group is on unpaid administrative leave as an investigation continues.
The case centers on allegations that the money was pumped into a company Robison set up.
