Detroit Public Schools Fraud
A former Detroit Public School official is facing a laundry list of criminal charges, including money laundering.
Former DPS Risk Management Executive Director Stephen Hill has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Detroit on charges of extortion, fraud, conspiracy and money laundering.
The nine-count indictment names eight individuals and charges that between the years of 2005 and 2006, Hill demanded and accepted kickback payments on more than three million dollars in fraudulently inflated invoices submitted to DPS from a local contracting vendor during that time period. Hill is also accused of accepting kickbacks from other vendors in the form of a brand new Mustang GT
convertible in 2005 and a brand new Dodge Durango SUV in 2006.
