They finally got the big cheese at UMDNJ!

So, for all of the mess at UMDMJ, the best that prosecutors could do was this ?

Sayreville man indicted in theft of funds from UMDNJ
A 29-year-old Sayreville man was indicted today on charges of stealing $30,000 while working as a cashier in a patient billing department for the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

A Middlesex County grand jury charged David Collymore with theft and official misconduct, contending he took the money in various amounts between Sept. 16 and Dec. 17, 2005, and deposited the funds in his credit card accounts to pay bills at restaurants in New York City and to pay for such items as clothing and furniture.

Assistant Middlesex County Prosecutor Judson Hamlin, who presented the case to the grand jury, said Collymore worked at a UMDNJ office in New Brunswick. His job involved reviewing the payment records of hospital patients and reimbursing people who used their credit cards to cover bills that later were paid to the hospital by health insurers, Hamlin said.

While processing the bills, Collymore, a cashier, used hospital funds to pay his personal credit card debts, the prosecuting attorney said.
