FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. \u2014 Two Broward County Public Schools employees who were arrested for fraud went before a judge on Thursday. <\/p>\n
Deputies said Henry McNabb, 42, of Deerfield Beach, and Brenton Hankerson, 43, of North Lauderdale, were using the district\u2019s facilities without authorization and for his own personal gain. <\/p>\n
This all came to light back in May when McNabb had a run-in with Delvin King, a principal at the Youth Under Construction school in Pompano Beach. <\/p>\n
King organized his school graduation inside the Blanche Ely High School basketball gymnasium, but when he arrived, there was already another event going on.<\/p>\n
\u201cI came in and there was a whole basketball tournament going on here at Blanche Ely High School,\u201d said King. \u201cThere was nothing on the calendar. I am the only person (who) rented the gym.\u201d<\/p>\n
King believes McNabb and others have been using Broward school gymnasiums to hold athletic events without properly requesting the facilities through the district and charging people to attend. <\/p>\n
\u201cThey are illegally renting out the gym for personal financial gain,\u201d said King. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s something that King says could prove to be a major liability for the district if something went wrong on school grounds. <\/p>\n
\u201cThere were no employees there,\u201d said King. \u201cNo security, no custodians, not one Broward County school employee.\u201d<\/p>\n
Local 10 News reached out to Broward Schools, which provided the following statement: <\/p>\n
\u201cBoth employees in question were arrested by Broward Schools Police as part of an investigations into the improper use of district facilities for personal gain. The Superintendent maintains a zero-tolerance stance on public corruption, and both employees will be subject to termination.\u201d<\/p>\n
Officials said that McNabb alone has deprived the district of nearly $13,000 in potential revenue. <\/p>\n
Both suspects remain behind bars at the Broward Main Jail on a $15,000 bond. <\/p>\n
