The former executive director of the Vermont Council of Special Education Administrators was charged with felony embezzlement, the Montpelier Police Department said in a press release<\/a> Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Darren McIntrye, who served as the head of the organization from 2021 to 2023, embezzled more than $76,000 from the organization and used the funds “for personal gain,” police alleged in the release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The investigation began in October 2024, when the organization reported the \u201cmisappropriation of company funds” to the Montpelier Police Department, Alesha Donovan, a police detective with the department, said in the release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vermont Council of Special Education Administrators has been active in Vermont for decades, supporting special education administrators and employees in school districts across the state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mary Lundeen, the organization’s executive director, said in an email that the organization was \u201cbound to promptly report\u201d any irregularities \u201cand to conduct an audit to determine the facts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat is what it has done here,\u201d she said. \u201cWe leave it to law enforcement and the courts to decide whether there are criminal acts.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
