A United States federal district court in Michigan has sentenced Nkechy Ezeh, a former executive director at the Early Learning Neighbourhood Collaborative (ELNC), to 70 months in prison for orchestrating a scheme that diverted $1.4 million in taxpayer and donor funds meant for vulnerable preschool children.
District Judge Hala Jarbou described Ezeh as “a fraud and a thief” who carried out a “brazen and widespread” operation to steal money intended for some of the most vulnerable children in West Michigan.
