Theft

I will start by saying Daniel Sansky is innocent until proven guilty.  The mechanic and garage owner faces a long list of charge for allegedly overcharging the Scranton School District and billing the district for work never performed.

When you steal from a school district, you rip off the taxpayers and deprive the kids.

What makes this situation even more sad is that there were people who knew what was going on, and did nothing to stop it.  The enablers are just as guilty.

With any luck, and just a little bit of wisdom, the school district can move on from this sorry episode.  So much of it seems like the old boys network, the way business around here is done, what passes for good governance.

We deserve better and we don't ask for better nearly enough.
