North Carolina Charity Head Accused of Selling Donations for Profit

There’s new trouble for a woman who ran a controversial charity in Raleigh, N.C.

The North Carolina Secretary of State’s office is looking at Jennifer Pierce’s participation in an ongoing criminal enterprise that cost two companies nearly $1 million.

CBS North Carolina has uncovered a number of court documents that indicate Pierce and an accomplice were using a nonexistent charity to get cellphones and tablets, which were later sold for cash. It’s the second time Pierce has been involved with a charity that the Secretary of State’s office has investigated.
