California Coach Jason Negro Faces Embezzlement Lawsuit

News summary

Jason Negro, the head football coach at St. John Bosco High School in California, faces a lawsuit from three former employees alleging embezzlement and financial mismanagement within the football program. Filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the lawsuit claims Negro handled all transactions in cash, kept in a safe in his office, and paid players' tuition secretly, violating California Interscholastic Federation rules. The plaintiffs, who claim wrongful termination after raising concerns about financial practices, allege that cash was accepted for youth camps, and funds from various school activities were misappropriated for personal use, including lavish retreats. Negro has denied wrongdoing, stating that an independent investigation has been conducted and the truth will emerge during legal proceedings. The allegations come as Negro has built St. John Bosco into a nationally recognized program, winning multiple state titles. The case highlights ongoing tensions between amateur sports integrity and financial practices in high school athletics.
