This is clearly demonstrated when he talked about.” Kind of says it all. Does not really make any accusation or proof of theft. It actually seems to say Jason intended to build up the neighborhood.

Post 52 – Trial – Harold Jason Craig (part 1)
Pg. 869 Smith “Based on your experience on the board at that time what could you tell us about the financial situation of the organization?” Craig “Okay. Technically when I first came on it wasn’t bad. But there was no income coming in. There’s a lot of expenditures, especially with the salary. I remember — Spencer was not there — but there was a couple employees and the Stephanie Serda’s salary was pretty expensive. At the time we paid Rosendo Rodriguez was the landscaper and the janitor. So that was a significant weekly cost. Expenses were pretty high at the… Continue reading…

Post 16 – Trial – Day 1 Commentary
$238k, $4000, Anita Serda, Board, Chico Martinez, Festival, Finances, Fundraising, Jason, Jesse Spier, Kristie Koester, PHCA, Stephanie Serda, Steve Kramer, TheftSome facts you need to know are that the PHCA had less than a $100,000 annual budget not including the festival. $42,000 of that money alone was Stephanie Serda’s salary. Anita made over $4000 to plan the festival. The accusation of Jason stealing $238,000 over 4 months is insane in and of itself. The PHCA could not raise that in years.
