PARKERSBURG, W.Va. (AP) - A former West Virginia University at Parkersburg employee faces up to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to using school funds for personal expenses.

Kevin Francis Offenberger is scheduled to be sentenced in April. He pleaded guilty this week in Wood County Circuit Court to felony fraudulent scheme and felony use of a purchase card.

Assistant prosecuting attorney Patrick Lefebure tells the Parkersburg News and Sentinel (https://bit.ly/1ERyDLL ) that Offenberger used a university-issued purchase card for about $54,000 in personal expenses between January 2009 and October 2013.



WVU-Parkersburg spokeswoman Katie Wootoon declined to comment on the case.
