A former University of Houston - Downtown employee is accused of spending thousands of dollars in public money on personal purchases when she worked as an administrative assistant in the Division of Advancement and University Relations, records show.
52-year-old Stephanie Olin was arrested Sept. 1 and charged with theft by a public servant and tampering with a governmental record. She is out of jail on personal recognizance bonds.
From October through December 2021, she’s accused of stealing $8,606.91 from the University of Houston - Downtown and then altering records to cover it up, according to court documents. “Not very smart because all of that’s traceable back to you,” Rosen said. “It’s an easy paper trail.” The university’s policy prohibits personal purchases or buying that doesn’t benefit the university. P-cards also can’t be used for non-university purposes even if the cardholder intends to reimburse the university, the documents state.
