发帖数: 901 | 1 Roosevelt Hairston Jr., former general counsel at Children's Hospital of
Philadelphia, has pleaded guilty today to mail fraud, money laundering and
filing a false tax return.
WHYY's Carolyn Beeler has the details from federal court.
Hairston, 46, embezzled about $1.7 million from CHOP starting in 1999.
Hairston admitted to submitting dozens of fake invoices to the hospital from
front companies, and to making up e-mail addresses and stealing the
identity of a friend in an attempt to cover up his activities. His lawyer
said Hairston is selling two properties to help pay CHOP back the $1.7
million. He will also be responsible for up to $1 million in unpaid taxes to
the IRS.
Look for a full report later from Carolyn. |
