Local Parent Charged with Stealing $61K from Philadelphia Schools for Her Own Gain

A Philadelphia woman faces serious charges after allegedly scamming the School District of Philadelphia out of more than $61,000. Laurel Schullere, who has two children enrolled in city schools, supposedly required therapeutic care for her kids but instead, directed school officials to send payments to a business called Missing Pieces.

Unbeknownst to authorities, Schullere owns the company and had been misleading the district by claiming it was providing services to her children. An investigation revealed that the company did not exist or operate in any capacity, with two addresses listed for it - one abandoned and the other belonging to a church.

Over nine years, the school district paid over $61,000 to Schullere without receiving any evidence of the business's activities. Attorney General Dave Sunday stated, "This defendant exploited a system designed to help her own children grow and succeed... Instead of ensuring the children received the care they needed, the defendant misled the district and pocketed taxpayer dollars."

Schullere surrendered to authorities on Wednesday and is now facing charges related to theft by deception.
 
OMG, this is soooo not cool 😱! I mean, I get that we all need help sometimes, but stealing from the system? That's just not right 🤦‍♀️. I can only imagine how many families could've gotten support with those $61k 💸 if it wasn't going straight to someone who just wanted it for themselves 😒. Laurel Schullere needs to take responsibility for her actions and think about the other kids who might be relying on that same system 🤝. Schools are supposed to be a safe haven, not a place where people exploit others for their own gain 💔. I hope she gets the help she needs, but also faces some serious consequences for what she's done 😡
 
Wow 😱, this is so messed up! I mean, a single mom scammed her own kids' school for cash? That's just crazy talk... Interesting 🤔 how did they not catch on sooner? The fact that she had two addresses listed for the fake business and one of them was even a church... Wow 😲. She should be ashamed of herself!
 
🤯 this is just outrageous, i mean, who does that? stealing from the school system to fund some supposed business she has no intention of delivering on... meanwhile her kids are paying the price because mom's too busy lining her own pockets 🤑. its not just about the money, its about trust - schullere basically exploited a system meant for good, for parents who genuinely need help with their kids' education and well-being. now shes going to face some serious consequences, hopefully she gets the therapy she needs (not for her kids, but for herself) 🤷‍♀️
 
Omg can u believe this?! 🤯 some ppl r just so ruthless! Laurel Schullere is literally stealing from the system meant to help her own kids, but she's the one who ends up getting all the money for herself? Like what even is wrong with her?! 🙄 and poor schools just get duped into paying out over 61k without any actual proof of her "therapy" business existing lol. This is just wild!
 
🤦‍♀️ I'm still trying to wrap my head around this one... 61k just disappeared into thin air? It's crazy how some people can take advantage of a good intention system like that. Like, what's the point of even having a school district if someone's gonna scam it for personal gain? 😒 It's not like Laurel Schullere was doing anything hard or underhanded... she just kinda coasted on her kids' 'needs' and took advantage of the system. I guess you could say she was taking care of herself first 🤑
 
🤯 seriously, what's wrong with some people?! I mean, I get that she was just trying to scam her way out of paying for her kids' care, but $61k is a huge amount of money! 🤑 And think about all the other parents who are actually struggling to make ends meet and need help from the schools. It's just not right.

And can we talk about how red flag this whole thing was? Two addresses listed for "Missing Pieces" - one abandoned and one belonging to a church? 🤔 That's like something out of a movie or TV show, but unfortunately it's real life. And now she's going to face serious charges because of her own greed.

I'm just so frustrated that more people don't come forward when they see this kind of thing happening. We need to look out for each other and make sure everyone is being treated fairly. 💖
 
🤦‍♀️ I'm so disappointed in this lady. 61K is a huge amount of money that could've been used to help tons of other people's kids, not just her own. 🤑 I mean, can you even imagine what would happen if everyone did that? Schools and hospitals and all the good orgs would be completely drained 😩. And it's not like she needed that money or anything... she just wanted a free ride 💁‍♀️. The worst part is, her own kids were supposed to benefit from this "therapy" but we all know how that turned out 🤷‍♀️. Anyway, hope she faces the consequences and gets some help herself 🤞.
 
😡🤯 I mean, seriously, $61k? That's like, a small fortune for one person to just scam out of an entire system! And what really gets me is that it's not just about the money, but about the lies and the deceit. The poor school district was trying to help this kid's children, and she just exploited them for her own gain. 🤕 It's like, come on, lady! There are better ways to get ahead than ripping people off!

And can you believe it went on for nine whole years?! That's like, an eternity of innocent people suffering because of one person's greed. And the worst part is that she was right in front of them, telling them she needed help for her kids, when really she was just lining her own pockets.

I'm all for helping others out, but not at the expense of others. It's like, if you need help, be honest about it! Don't try to scam people into giving you what you want. That's just wrong, and now she's facing serious charges. Justice will be served, I hope! 💪
 
😕 I'm so disappointed in this lady Laurel Schullere... she's supposed to be taking care of her own kids but instead she's just scamming the school system for her own gain 💸. Can you believe it? She set up a fake company and told them they were providing therapy for her kids, but really she was just lining her own pockets 🤑. And all that money... $61K over nine years?! That's insane! It's like she took advantage of a good system to get what she wanted, no matter who it hurt 🤷‍♀️. I guess sometimes people can't be trusted and we have to hold them accountable for their actions 👮.
 
man this is like when you're trying so hard to help others but in the process you end up harming them more 🤦‍♀️ it's all about being genuine and transparent, can't just fake your way through life or scam people for personal gain 💸 we gotta be mindful of how our actions affect others, even if it's meant well sometimes. it's not about the amount of money involved but rather the principle behind it 👮‍♂️ & that's why they call it theft by deception... because that's what it was 🤑
 
omg can u believe this 🤯?! so like Laurel Schullere is literally stealing from her own kids' school 🤷‍♀️ like 2 of them are enrolled there and she's supposed to be getting therapeutic care for them but instead she's just scamming the system outta $$ 💸 she makes a fake company called Missing Pieces and sends receipts to the school to get paid 📝 meanwhile she's just using that money for herself 🤑 i mean i know some ppl might say she did it cuz she was desperate or whatever, but like how can u do this 2 ur own kids 😭? that's just messed up.
 
omg this lady is literally disgusting she took advantage of the school system just so she could line her own pockets i dont even know how many ppl rely on that system for their kids education what's wrong with some people?? 🤯💸 I mean i feel bad for the kids who got scammed but come on, it's not like they did anything to deserve this kinda treatment. She should be ashamed of herself 😒
 
😒 Can you even believe this?! Some people have no shame, right? Like, I get that parents want the best for their kids, but coming up with a whole fake business just to scam the system? That's just... 🤯. And to think, that $61k could've been used for actual help and resources for those kids instead of lining some mom's pockets. It's just wild how easily people can take advantage of good intentions. The investigation is finally paying off, I guess it's about time someone held her accountable 🙄.
 
Can you even believe what happened here? 🤯 Like, she's a parent herself and yet she takes advantage of the system for her own gain? $61K is a lot of money, fam... And it's not like she was struggling or anything, two kids in school and all that. I mean, I get that maybe things got tough but come on, can't you just find another way to help yourself out instead of hurting the people who are trying to help others? 🤷‍♀️ And what really gets me is that there's this business called Missing Pieces... sounds like some deep-seated issue or something 😒. Anyway, hope she gets charged and pays it back, because that's just wrong on so many levels 💸
 
You gotta feel sorry for the victims here 🤕. The school district's good intentions were totally hijacked by one bad apple. I mean, Laurel Schullere was supposed to be getting help for her kids, but she ended up taking advantage of them and the system. It's like, what even is therapeutic care if it's just a way to scam people? 🤷‍♀️ The real question is, how did this go on for so long without anyone catching on? I guess that's the thing about trusting people - sometimes you gotta wonder if they're truly looking out for others. Anyway, hope she gets some serious time behind bars 💯.
