Two nuns in California allegedly stole more than $500,000 from the school they had been at for years, which they spent in casinos and on vacations.
Bank records show Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper and Sister Lana Lang had been embezzling funds from St. James Catholic School in Torrence for at least a decade, the Press-Telegram reported.
But officials from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles told parents and alumni of the school that auditors have not been able to trace all of the money trail.
Kreuper had retired as the school's principal earlier this year and she dealt with the school fees, which she allegedly withheld and deposited into an account only she and Chang knew about, the paper said.
While investigators found the two gave some of the stolen money back to the school, the rest was used for their "personal gain." Kreuper has admitted she took the money and expressed remorse.

I went to Catholic schools, back in the day. I was a real wise ass. After getting whacked over the knuckles with the steel ruler Sister Rita James told me something I’ve never forgotten. ‘’Young man’’, she said ‘’Never discount the spiritually transforming experience of pain’’.
Oui.
I went to a Catholic grade school too, and I got into trouble on a regular basis...I am pretty sure George Lucus got the idea of Darth Vader’s uniform from Catholic nuns. When I was studying improv at Second City in Chicago, we did a skit called Sister Mary Vader, it was pretty funny. In this class the kids didn’t screw around or they were taken out by Sister Mary Vader.
Yes...the experience did me more good than harm. Forced me to behave & I found out that I good perform academically at a high level.
