An Alaskan man who ran a charity raising money to send care packages to US soldiers deployed overseas has been indicted by Alaskan authorities for using donations to fund his own lifestyle, the Anchorage Daily News reported.
Prosecutors say an employee from Alaska Veteran Outreach Boxes for Heroes (AVOBH) tipped authorities off to the alleged scam run by Frank Roach, 52, of Kenai, Alaska, last October.
"The employee believed the vast majority of the donations were not being used for shipping costs but were going to the pockets of those involved in the organization," according to a statement from the State of Alaska Department of Law.
