Complete story here

Former University of Idaho Vice President Jerry Wallace has been charged with two counts of misuse of public money in the failed University Place project in Boise. Wallace, who was placed on administrative leave in 2003 and later resigned, is accused of wrongly creating a university financial account to be used for costs related to development of the planned UI satellite campus in Boise, dubbed University Place. Wallace allegedly created the account without approval from the Idaho Board of Education — and allowed money to be withdrawn from the account though there was never enough money deposited to cover the withdrawals — Associated Press.
