A lawsuit against St. John Bosco's football coach Jason Negro accuses him of embezzlement and violating CIF bylaws by enabling cash payments for player tuition. Filed by three ex-employees, the lawsuit states Negro conducted all program finances in cash with no accountability, raising ethical concerns and potential violations of California law. The plaintiffs, former administrators, claim retaliatory terminations for exposing these practices, invoking California's Whistleblower Protection Act. The case further highlights issues of governance and financial integrity within high school athletics.
The plaintiffs allege that coach Jason Negro embezzled money and allowed assistant coaches to pay player tuition in cash, avoiding school oversight.
They claim they were wrongfully terminated for exposing financial misconduct, which they argue was protected under California's Whistleblower Protection Act.
