Money raised at a school fundraising Back-2-School Carnival, held at Wilson High
School on Saturday, August 19th has been stolen from the school office vault.
At the conclusion of the event on Saturday, proceeds from the fund raiser were
placed in the school office vault to hold for the school bookkeeper for Monday. *
When school office staff opened up Monday, August 21, 2006, an office secretary
discovered that the money had been stolen from the vault. There was no evidence of
a forced entry.
The school principal stated that his computer, which contained information regarding
the security system, surveillance cameras and the vault had been breached.
The School Resource Officer stated that he had overheard a man and a woman
talking at the crime scene around 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, but did not think anything of
it, because “lots of people from the Information Technology Department had been all
over the building throughout the day.”
Investigators have recovered a set of fingerprints, a footprint and a coded email.
Twelve employees from the Information Technology Department were working on
technical projects and professional development at the school on that date. Six
technical personnel were divided evenly between the MCPS and Refresh Projects.
Six instructional personnel were divided between the New Gradebook program
training and a MovieMaker Workshop.
*Note: this practice is not consistent with actual school procedures and is for educational purposes only.
