Douglas Carter, 46 years old, faced charges of stealing more than $440,000 from the Montgomery Development Center in Huber Heights. The Center, whose staff considered one another “like family,” reports that it’s “difficult to believe someone could commit this level of offense.”
Carter stood to serve up to four years in jail for his alleged theft. A ruling judge determined that Carter had an obligation to pay back the money he stole. The judge also determined that Carter must face a permanent ban from holding positions of trust with the government.
While Carter’s victims argued that Carter only planned to make amends because he got caught, Carter defended himself, saying that he “want[s] to make myself a better person and put myself in society.”
While Carter worked with Koffel, Brininger, and Nesbit to address his charges, Nancy Banks of the Montgomery Development Center spearheaded department restructuring and security revamps.
