FBI Raids Home & Office Of LAUSD Superintendent Alberto Carvalho
Key Points:
- The FBI is conducting raids on the home and office of Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho, executing court-authorized warrants with details sealed by the court.
- The investigation coincides with recent financial challenges for LAUSD, including the approval of $250 million in bonds to settle sex abuse claims, adding to $500 million authorized previously for victim payouts.
- LAUSD also recently approved up to 657 layoffs to address a structural budget deficit, with Carvalho warning the district could face insolvency within three years without significant cuts.
- Last year, a lawsuit was filed by LAUSD students and former Superintendent Austin Beutner accusing the district and Carvalho of misusing $76.7 million in Proposition 28 funds for art and music
