Audit shows over 100-thousand missing from Maquoketa Valley

A final audit report is now public as part of an investigation of missing money at Maquoketa Valley High School in eastern Iowa’s Jackson County. Discrepancies were found in the school’s activity and nutrition fund earlier this year. A probe led to the firing of district bookkeeper Linda Knutson in April. The report finds that between July of 1997 to January of this year, more than 105-thousand dollars vanished. Criminal charges have -not- yet been filed.
