    Tennessee State Senator Allegedly Stole Over $600,000 Of Federal Funds To Pay For Wedding, Travel, Campaign Events And A Jeep

    A Democratic Tennessee state senator has been charged with theft and embezzlement of federal funds which she allegedly used to pay for vacations, handbags and other personal expenses, the Department of Justice announced Wednesday.

    Prosecutors with the U.S. Attorney Western District of Tennessee said that Tennessee state Sen. Katrina Robinson, 39, received more than $2.2 million in federal grants between 2015 and 2019 for a vocational training school she founded, The Healthcare Institute (THI). Robinson is accused of stealing over $600,000 from the school and using it for personal reasons.

    During the period when the school received the grant funds, Robinson allegedly “stole in excess of $600,000 from THI by compensating herself in excess of what was allowed under the terms of the HRSA grant and by using Institute funds for payments and purchases for her own personal benefit and that of her immediate family,” the Department of Justice said in its indictment.

    Federal grant money given t0 The Healthcare Institute was intended to “provide scholarships to low-income individuals,” and establish, “an educational program to train certified nursing assistants for employment assisting geriatric patients,” the complaint said. Instead, Robinson allegedly used the money to benefit herself and her family, according to the Justice Department.

    The FBI said they received an anonymous complaint from someone who claimed Robinson used THI fund to buy a $550 Louis Vuitton handbag, according to the Justice Department.

    The investigators found that Robinson allegedly used tax-payer money to buy a Jeep for her daughter, designer clothing, and paid for expenses related to her wedding, honeymoon, and later divorce.

    Robinson allegedly used stolen funds to pay off personal debt, for travel and entertainment, home electronics, and a $5,000 wrought iron front entry door.

    Coming from Chicago it was daily news. I think NY should most definitely investigate DeBlasio and his wife and salaries...

    Default Oh no! Not a Democrat....really?

    She obviously went to the OBAMA ACORN SCHOOL for diverting federal funds into her own account to HELP HER PEOPLE SURVIVE THE HORROR'S OF AMERICAN FREEDOM.
