Ebert Drops Embezzlement Case
The Manassas Journal-Messenger reports that the Commonwealth Attorney’s office has dropped an embezzlement case against someone who was being prosecuted for stealing money from a Youth Club, not because there wasn’t sufficient evidence, but because the commonwealth was not “prepared to proceed with the case”. In effect, they were too busy to deal with this.
Judge William D. Hamblen dropped the charge against Ray Von Scott, 60, at the prosecution’s request.
Scott was accused of embezzling a five-figure sum of money from the Dale City Youth Athletic Club.
Prosecutors asked that the charge be dropped Tuesday because the Commonwealth was not prepared to proceed with the case.
Police believe that from May 2004 to June 2005 Scott used fees paid by the parents of children playing in the organization’s football league and donations for players’ insurance, uniforms and equipment for personal uses, Commonwealth’s Attorney Paul B. Ebert said.
When it comes to protecting children, Ham Sandwich could have done a better job of finding the time to prosecute this case, no matter what it took. This is an outrage.
