- "A Dayton Daily News examination found that of the $6.5 million in tax dollars Richard Allen Schools received in 2009, more than $1 million went toward management and consulting firms founded by Jeanette C. Harris, Richard Allen's CEO and president."
This reporter left a message seeking comment on superintendent Michelle Thomas' voicemail.
Thomas is Harris' daughter.
Oliver also showed a WHIO clip featuring anchor Cheryl McHenry and a DaytonDailyNews.com article "Charter School padded attendance records for state money, auditor says" by reporters Laura A. Bischoff and Jeremy P. Kelley.
