From The Tulsa World: The former superintendent of the Skiatook (Okla) school district has been ordered to pay more than $657,000 in restitution after pleading guilty to accepting bribes from a vendor. Gary Johnson also received a 15-year suspended sentence. A grand jury indicted Johnson after an audit found that the district paid the vendor $570,000 more than it would have paid for custodial supplies and security equipment had it bought them directly.
