St. Cloud State cheerleaders swindled by coach

You ever hear about those elaborate embezzling schemes? Like the one in Office Space where they take fractions of a penny over time and deposit them into a large account.

Well, this one from St. Cloud State University, is nothing like that.

Jesse Reyes, the former SCSU cheerleading squad coach of three years, has allegedly embezzled over $2,100 from the squad.

SCSU cheerleaders were planning a trip to a cheer camp this summer in order to go to the national competition.

Instead of going to camp, however, they decided to have some of the camps’ leaders come to SCSU and teach.

Squad members said Reyes instructed the cheerleaders to pay him directly in the form of personal checks.

It was understood that he would then deposit the money into his personal account and pay the camp leaders from the account.

“He said it would be faster if we just paid him,” Ashley DeMorett, the president of the cheerleading squad said.

Each cheerleader gave Reyes a check for $189.

Wow Jesse.  That’s a hell of a plan to not get caught.  In the the underground world of “running a con”, this is on par with giving a kid a shiny new nickel in exchange for a dime.

I can’t imagine what other extravagant ponzi schemes you’ve come up with.

As far as the cheerleaders go, my heart goes out to them.  Since they’re not a school sponsored sport, they don’t get any money whatsoever.

Although from the article, it seems like they may have found an alternative for fund-raising.

“Right now we have to share uniforms” cheerleader Jenna Holm said. “There are three girls sharing the same uniform because we don’t have money to buy new ones.”

In a sexually charged world fueled by the internet, I feel the need to sell this website idea for those poor girls.

3 Girls, 1 Uniform

I’d buy the domain right now if I were you ladies. Otherwise some sick, deranged, sexually perverted blogger will.
