TWO nuns stole £400,000 from a school where they worked and used some of the money to fund gambling trips to Las Vegas.
Sister Mary Margaret Kreuper, the principal, and Sister Lana Chang, the vice principal, were claimed to have embezzled funds for their own personal use.
The nuns, from the order of Sisters of St Joseph of Carondelet, took tuition fees and donations to St James School in Redondo Beach, California.
School officials told parents that the nuns, who were best friends, used some of the money for trips and casino visits to Las Vegas.
Auditors have been able to trace £400,000 in six years’ worth of bank records.
Marge Graf, a lawyer for the school, told the parents meeting: “We do know that they had a pattern of going on trips – we do know they had a pattern of going to casinos.
“The reality is, they used the account as their personal account.”
Kreuper spent almost 29 years as principal at St James School.
She retired at the end of the 2018 school year – as did Chang.
Their archdiocese said the nuns were “involved in the personal use of a substantial amount of school funds” – but the pair will NOT face prosecution.

Instead the matter will be handled internally by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
The sisters’ order will reimburse the school.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
