Air America Watch: Charity Funds Diverted To Air America

Authorities Say Money Meant For Boys And Girls Club Went To Liberal Radio Network ‘Air America’

CBS: Charge: Charity Funds Diverted To Air America

Two former executives at a government-funded youth organization whose finances were scrutinized after it diverted money to the liberal radio network Air America were charged Thursday with misappropriating $1.2 million of the non-profit’s funds.

Charles Rosen, a former executive director at the Gloria Wise Community Center, and his former assistant director, Jeffrey Aulenbach, face charges of grand larceny and obstructing governmental administration. Rosen was also charged with forgery.

New York City’s Department of Investigation, which investigated the nonprofit for two years, said the men improperly took more than $290,000 from the organization for their personal use, on top of their already unusually large salaries.

The money — described in the non-profit’s books as business expenses — went to pay for home renovations and furnishings and new cars, among other things, according to a Department of Investigation report released Thursday.

City investigators said the pair also improperly transferred $875,000 to Air America, which was co-founded by one of Gloria Wise’s executives.

Well, fancy that.

NOPE.

And when will Air America Executives be indicted?

New York Post: ‘WISE’ ASSES IN $1M FRAUD

Managers of the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club in The Bronx looted the charity and used $1.2 million in taxpayer money for luxury cars, home renovations and start-up cash for lefty radio network Air America, a two-year investigation has found.

The bombshell probe by the city Department of Investigation was made public yesterday as two of Gloria Wise’s top former officials took a no-jail plea deal – admitting in Bronx Supreme Court they stole as much as $150,000 from programs meant for kids, the elderly and the disabled.

In all, investigators found that six former Gloria Wise officials took $290,000 to pay for their personal expenses – on top of excessively generous salaries.

Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club officials Charles Rosen (above) and Jeff Aulenbach leave court yesterday after pleading guilty to lootingthe club to boost Air America and pay for bathroom work at Aulenbachâ€™s home.
