Deceased Gay Hyattsville Mayor Accused of Embezzlement
Metro Weekly ^ | August 31, 2022 | John Riley

Former Hyattsville Mayor Kevin Ward, a popular gay local politician who shockingly committed suicide earlier this year, has been posthumously accused of embezzling millions of dollars from the KIPP DC public charter school network, according to a complaint filed by federal prosecutors.

According to a civil forfeiture complaint filed on Monday, Ward, the former senior director of technology for KIPP DC, allegedly used $2.2 million of school funds to make personal purchases while working for the charter network from 2017 through July 2021.

Prosecutors claim that the funds had been earmarked toward providing laptops, tablets, and other technology for children, but none of the products for which the school system paid were ever delivered, reports The Washington Post.

It’s the butchering of the language to push a particular agenda that I find repulsive.

Words no longer have meanings - you make them up as it suits you.

And he who controls the language controls the culture.

I hope our side never succumbs to their language, but the propaganda organs will keep shoving down our throats.

Clark added that the charter school network had already recovered $1 million from its insurance provider, and expects the U.S. Department of Justice’s planned forfeiture of Ward’s West Virginia property, cars, and memorabilia will net another $800,000.

So, he embezzled over $2million, but the sale will only generate $800K? How many pockets will be lined in that deal?

Oh, and a million from the "insurance provider", i.e. all the other people who pay for insurance from that company will be billed for his crimes.

Remember when the deviants were pushing the fictional narrative that “marriage” would hold them accountable to each other, the children they raise, and society? That it would cut down on the amount of sexually transmitted diseases that are endemic in high proportions in that population?

None of that happened.

"I guess we’re just supposed to somehow know that Hyattsville is in Maryland."

More correctly, DC...
During the 1970s, Hyattsville and 75% of the rest of PG county were fully assimilated by the invading DC Borg...

Being black, queer and a democrat, it's not hard to blow through that much in no time.
