Harvard University Employee Arrested For Theft From The University





[From article]
A Harvard employee for 17 years, Shawn Bunn, 44, allegedly used Harvard’s money to make hundreds of personal purchases, which he covered up by submitting false receipts to the University, according to the office of Middlesex County District Attorney Marian T. Ryan. Bunn, who was given a University credit card to make purchases for a computer lab, apparently stole money from Harvard over the course of four years.
“This is a breach of trust by a school employee,” Ryan said. “Over a period of four years the defendant is alleged to have made personal purchases in excess of $80,000 therefore diverting resources from the students and faculty of Harvard University.”
[. . .]
Harvard University Police acquired a search warrant on Bunn’s home and office, where they apparently found many of the items Bunn billed to Harvard but allegedly stole for personal use, including a table saw, Lego sets, and a garbage disposal.
