I'm excited for more details about this one.

In this articles and others they never say what she did with them. In one article it said they followed her undercover and saw her show up to pick up the wings, sometimes before the place even opened. Hopefully they fill us in.

This was caught in a mid school year audit and they acted quickly. The person in charge of the audit had been on the job for 10 days. If this had been going on for 19 months (she started working in a "consultant" capacity for the district she had been working for over a decade) where were the mid year audits before? Should have been atleast 1 other mid year audit. Not to mention end year and budgeting for the next year.

The distributor didnt neccesarily need to know the wings weren't something the district used because of bones but its suspicious they didnt notice something was off. The invoices were paid so why would they question it I guess?

Covid happened and kids were not in class but the district was still providing meals. Is this just a covid chaos oversight or is there more to this? Where did the wings go? Did she sell them or did she know someone in with distribution?

How much time do you think you get for 11,000 cases of chicken wings? In my mind, she’s playing the long game. In 10 years (with good behavior), she gets to come home to a lifetime supply of chicken wings. #WorthTheRisk

… and before y’all say she’ll have to hand over the wings if she still has them, I’ll say that you don’t steal 11,000 cases of chicken wings without a plan.

She had to have sold them or there’d be no motive for her to steal them u-n-l-e-s-s she looks like she ate a million bucks worth.

I guess more specifically I'm curious where she sold them. Obviously she didnt eat 11,000 cases. Just doing dumb math. Took place over 19 months, there are 578 days. 11,000 cases divided by 578 is about 19. So every single day without fail she would have to go and pick up 19 cases of chicken. I doubt she didnt take a day off but that puts it into perspective. 1.5 million divided by 11k is about $136 per case which sounds right from my past experience working in restaurants. That's a lot of chicken. Did she have a deal with local restaurants who didnt say anything because they got a deal? Was she Robin hood and donated it? Did she know someone in distribution (the people who loaded up her van before the distribution center opened) and then she just driver behind the building and gives back the chicken and they continue to sell it as normal so now that money is essentially laundered and they just balance the books and take cuts? The cops followed her so they know but nothing else has been included. The wingspericy is interesting.
