Charity Boss Redirects Taxpayer Money From Poor to Herself

Go to Article

Charity used to be handled by churches. People motivated by good connected directly with those needing help. Now it is mostly the purview of Big Government and the nonprofit NGOs it funnels coercively acquired money through. Consequently, aid is distributed less effectively:

A Missouri charity boss swiped nearly $11 million meant for starving, low-income kids and blew it on lavish items such as mansions and a flashy yellow Mercedes for her boyfriend, prosecutors said Tuesday.

Connie Bobo, 46, who ran the New Heights Community Resource Center in Bridgeton, allegedly claimed she had spent $20 million of the federally allocated taxpayer money to feed the children between February 2019 and March 2022.

But she actually spent less than half of those “meal reimbursement” funds on food — instead plunking down big bucks on real estate and “luxury goods,” and giving her romantic partner $1.4 million, according to prosecutors.

Often it is a sense of entitlement that creates greed without guilt that knows no bounds.
