Nuns stole over $500,000 from struggling Catholic school to fund trips and gambling habit
Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper was the principal of the St. James Catholic School for 28 year and Sister Lana Chang taught the eighth-grade
Two nuns from a California Catholic school have been accused of siphoning $500,000 in tuition, fees, and donations that could have gone towards the school's development into a different account that was then used to fund trips and casino visits.
The fraud came to light after the accused, Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper and Sister Lana Chang, recently retired from their positions at the St. James Catholic School in Torrance — the former was the principal of the school for 28 years while the latter taught the eighth-grade.
