Prosecutors in Atlanta have filed charges against a second former Georgia Tech employee in a credit-card-abuse case that has so far ended the careers of 17 university employees.

According to the Associated Press and a statement on the Web site of Georgia’s attorney general, a state grand jury has indicted the employee, Michelle Harris, on one count of felony racketeering. The indictment accuses her of charging $173,000 in personal expenses on a state-issued “procurement card,” also called a “p-card.” Earlier this month, federal prosecutors accused another former employee, Donna Renee Gamble, of misusing her p-card to buy $316,000 worth of personal items.

A state audit report blamed the university for its lax supervision of the cards. —Lawrence Biemiller
