MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - A former Holt High School principal and
his wife have been arrested in the ongoing probe of Alabama's
community college system.
The Opelika couple, 74-year-old Jimmie Clements and 52-year-old
Dana Clements, are charged with theft of checks or money valued at
more than $2,500 from the state and from Southern Union Community
College.
They also are charged with theft by deception of checks or money
valued at more than $2,500, also from Southern Union, which has
campuses in Opelika, Wadley and Valley. They were released from the
Lee County Jail Monday on $20,000 bond each.
The Clements were named in a Department of Postsecondary
Education report issued in the fall of 2007 that outlined
allegations of wrongdoing at the two-year college while Susan
Salatto was president.
