John Covington, the man appointed by Michigan’s governor to run the Educational Achievement Authority (EAA), has used his position to pay for almost a quarter of a million dollars in travel expense, hotel expense, furniture expense, gasoline for his chauffeured car and other odd bills.
The EAA was set up–supposedly–to improve Detroit’s worst performing schools.
Covington and his staff claimed they had to go to places like Las Vegas, Orlando and New York–in pursuit of what Covington calls “training”!
Training for what, though? That is the question! Learning to rip off public funds, perhaps!
