Following a federal court ruling, two individuals associated with former Public Schools Board President Michael Bonds have been found guilty of conspiracy to defraud the United States.
The verdict, handed down on Wednesday, revealed their involvement in attempts to conceal taxable income from the IRS and offering bribes to Bonds.
These payments were made in exchange for Bonds’ support in advocating for the expansion of Universal Charter schools and securing favorable leases.
Bonds is awaiting sentencing, which was temporarily delayed as he assisted the government in prosecuting the other two individuals implicated in the scheme.
