Former GA Tech employee sentenced

A former accountant at the Georgia Institute of Technology charged with using state credit cards for personal use has been sentenced to three years and eight months in federal prison. Donna Gamble of Marietta pleaded guilty to stealing more than $300,000 from the school. The 43-year-old Gamble admitted purchasing more than 3,800 personal items, including a $1,900 margarita mixer, over a five-year period. She created phony receipts and made false entries in accounting records to conceal the charges.
