JACKSON, Wyo. (AP) — A former Teton County school bus mechanic is denying charges that he bought bus parts using a school district credit card and then sold the items online.
The Jackson Hole News & Guide reports (http://bit.ly/1B2Pmux) 44-year-old Anthony Robinson of Victor, Idaho, pleaded not guilty to felony theft during a District Court hearing on Thursday. His trial was set for June 22.
Robinson was initially charged with spending $20,000 in district money to buy 37 fuel injectors that he apparently purchased from a Tennessee company and then sold back to the same company using his own eBay account.
Investigators have since identified other companies involved in similar transactions. Prosecutors say the total amount stolen could be as high as $160,000.
