The former principal of Baltimore Community High School was sentenced Friday to three months in prison for stealing money from a school bank account as well as school system technology, according to the Maryland state prosecutor.
Leslie N. Lewis, 45, pleaded guilty in December to two counts of theft for taking more than $58,000 from the Baltimore City school system.
According to prosecutors the school had a bank account that was set up with the proceeds from the sale of school uniforms, snacks, school supplies and graduation fees. Lewis used a debit card to make cash withdrawals and purchases at local casinos of about $13,000.
In a second case, she used deceptive purchase orders to steal over $45,000 worth of technology from the city through its internal purchasing system between 2013 and 2016. The statement of fact states that she stole a dryer, a Bose speaker system, Apple laptops, laser printers, digital cameras and other items for her personal use.
