MACON, Ga.
Charity officials plead not guilty
Two officials who worked for a Georgia-based ministry that provided discounted groceries to needy families across the U.S. have pleaded not guilty to fraud charges.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that former CEO Andrew Wingo and Harry Michaels asked for court-appointed attorneys in their federal court appearance Tuesday.
Wingo and Michaels are named in an indictment that alleges ministry officials siphoned millions of dollars from Angel Food to buy jewelry, athletic equipment, clothes and make a down payment on a jet.
