A Fulton County Superior Court judge today sentenced a former Georgia Tech employee to ten years in prison for theft, using a state-issued purchasing card.
Judge John J. Goger found Michelle Harris guilty on one count of felony racketeering.
Harris stole over $170,000 from the school over a four-year period.
Harris used the card to pay for two college tuitions at Georgia State University, tens of thousands of dollars in gift cards, a diamond ring, car repairs and insurance, cellphone bills, and over $4,000 dollars to cater a wedding reception.
Harris was also slapped with a ten-year parole after serving her sentence.

East Georgia fire chief faces theft charges
A former fire chief in the town of Arnoldsville, near Athens, has been arrested on theft charges. Agents with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation took 33-year-old Joe Siegert into custody this week. He is charged with three felony counts of theft by conversion. Authorities say $50,000 in grant money meant for the east Georgia town’s volunteer fire department instead was taken by Siegert.
