A Wayne Township PTO president has been arrested in connection with charges accusing her of embezzling more than $4,000 via 79 unauthorized charges on a debit card.
Maplewood Elementary School assistant principal Richard Hollinghead first reported the money missing to Wayne Township School Police on January 8. Principal Mora Clark told detectives that the school suspected PTO president Angela Evans of making unauthorized withdrawals.
Detectives spoke with Evans who told them she had a personal account at the same bank and must have used the wrong debit card. But, detectives say, Evans used the PTO card for a purchase at a Aerospatiale in August 2009. She realized the mistake and told detectives it was “an honest mistake.”
But it didn’t stop there, according to court documents Evans continued to use the card even though she knew it was wrong.
“Angela Evans did admit even though she knew she had used the business debit card she did not repay the money back to the Maplewood PTO account.”
Evans told detectives she was “sorry for what (she) had done and was willing to pay back all of the money owed to the Maplewood PTO.”
