A woman who formerly served as treasurer of the Parent-Teacher Organization at a Southern Florida charter school is facing charges for allegedly stealing tens of thousands of dollars from the organization’s bank account.

According to reports, the woman, who had spent nearly four years as the Parent-Teacher Organization treasurer at Imagine Charter School in Coral Springs, was relieved of her duties last year after she was suspected of taking money from the organization’s funds.

The situation began in the summer of 2024, when a board member reportedly noticed that a substantial amount of money appeared to be missing from the Wells Fargo account. It was initially believed that $12,000 was unaccounted for, but later, the authorities alleged that they found approximately $44,000 had been taken.

As a result of the accusations, the 55-year-old was fired from her position as treasurer.

Authorities in Florida arrested a 59-year-old woman after she allegedly tried to poison an infant she was babysitting with antifreeze.

The incident reportedly occurred in February at the woman’s home near Palm Beach. The alleged victim, an 11-month-old baby, had been described by his parents as healthy. According to reports, the babysitter texted the mother around 2:25 p.m. and said the child was tired and asking for a nap. His grandmother picked him up about an hour later, and she noticed he was unusually tired and unable to hold his head up. Shortly after, the baby began vomiting a clear, sticky, and foul-smelling substance. His mother took him to the hospital, where his condition worsened and he was placed on life support after suffering cardiac arrest. He was revived after 10 minutes of CPR and transferred through several hospitals for further treatment. Doctors initially thought the child was ill, but test results ruled out infection or genetic causes. Further testing showed the presence of ethylene glycol in his system, which is the toxic chemical found in antifreeze, causing them to believe he had been the victim of a poisoning.

Investigators learned that the child’s mother left two bottles of breast milk and some solid food with the babysitter, but the woman later claimed she fed the child from a one-ounce bottle the mother had not supplied. When questioned, the babysitter denied that anyone else had contact with the child or that he had been near the garage where antifreeze was stored. Police found two bottles of antifreeze in the home, and one of them was partially empty.
