Two California moms have been
charged with embezzling $30,000 from their kids' elementary school fund that
pays for extras, such as hiring school counselors and kindergarten handwriting
programs.
San Jose prosecutors say
42-year-old Jennifer Lee Vazquez and 28-year-old Wendi Marie Hayes oversaw the
Baldwin Elementary Home and School Club account. Bank officials notified club
officers because of unusual charges to Netflix, J.C. Penney, Old Navy and gas
stations.
The two mothers, who were charged in July and are not in custody, face a Santa
Clara County court hearing Dec. 16. Vasquez will enter
a plea and Hayes will get a date for start of her preliminary hearing.
The San Jose Mercury News says they are charged with grand theft for
allegedly pilfering funds from for seven months beginning in September 2009.
