Former Superintendent Beverly Hall Accused of Leading �Conspiracy�

Atlanta- A Fulton County Grand Jury has returned indictments against
former APS Superintendent Dr. Beverly Hall and 34-subordinates in
connection with a test cheating scandal. Each of the defendants is charged
with Georgia RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations)
conspiracy. The 65-count indictment also includes charges of False
Statements and Writings, False Swearing, Theft by Taking and Influencing
Witnesses in connection with the alleged conspiracy to alter Criterion
Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT) scores.

The District Attorney�s 21-month criminal investigation follows a 2011
probe initiated by the Governor�s Office into testing irregularities and
cheating allegations on 2008-2009 CRCT exams in dozens of Atlanta Public
Elementary Schools. The District Attorney�s Office created a special unit
of prosecutors and investigators to explore potential criminal activity
connected with the allegations. The investigation included a review of
testing activity associated with at least 50 APS schools as well as
hundreds of interviews with school administrators, staff, parents and
students.

Prosecutors allege the 35 named defendants conspired to either cheat,
conceal cheating or retaliate against whistleblowers in an effort to
bolster CRCT scores for the benefit of financial rewards associated with
high test scores. The alleged activity dates back to as early as 2005. In
addition to Dr. Beverly Hall, the indicted defendants include four high-
level executive administrators, six principals, two assistant principals,
six testing coordinators, 14 teachers, a school improvement specialist and
a school secretary.

Grand Jury warrants have been issued for the arrest of each defendant. The
case will now be assigned to a Fulton County Superior Court Judge and
scheduled for trial.

Barack Obama, reelected by the dumbest voters in the history of the United
States of America.

Eric Holder, racist black murdering United States Attorney General, still
has his job.

Nancy Pelosi, Democrat criminal, accessory before and after the fact to
improper vetting of Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama, a confirmed
felon using SSAN 042-68-4425, belonging to a dead man.

Obama ignored the brutal killing of an American diplomat in Benghazi, then
relieved American military officers who attempted to prevent said murder
in order to cover up his own ineptness.

Obama continues his goal of disarming America while ObamaCare increases
insurance premiums 200% and leaves millions without health care.

Obama helped bankrupt Illinois. Democrat run Chicago closes 54 public
schools.
