It’s said that during her nearly three-year stay at HCI College, Brenda Green used a debit card to pay for all of her purchases: from pink Apple watches to several trips to hotels in Los Angeles and New York.

Her most expensive purchase is $ 40 in gift cards.

HCI officials confirmed that Green was fired for an unrelated case in September 2017. HCI co-chair of the board of directors, Lawrence Brown, refused to go into the details of her departure and the results of the latest investigation, in which Green is accused of grand theft, money laundering and organized fraud.

The Green accountant, hired in July 2017, was the first to suspect something was wrong when she noticed that Green's debit card statements were not accompanied by appropriate purchase receipts. When she was told that Green was keeping receipts in her office, the accountant took the statements to management.

Workers were still trying to examine receipts after Green was fired. When they took out a box with them, the collection was incomplete, moreover, it was full of personal belongings. In October 2017, they called the investigators of the Palm Beach County Sheriff. They tracked every purchase and, with the help of HCI, sorted out non-school businesses.

Investigators claim that Green bought furniture for a total of $ 2947 with her HCI debit card. Staples says she spent more than $ 10. All but about $ 000 went to gift cards.

Investigators did not specify which gift cards she bought.

Brenda Lee Green often bought cards with a cheap promotional item, such as a battery or a bottle of water, to hide what investigators see in their report as “proceeds from organized fraud and theft.”

On Tuesday, Green was sent to prison, where she was assigned a bail of $ 35. She was released a few hours later.

Brenda declined to comment.
