A volunteer treasurer for the Academy Little League in Colorado Springs has been accused of stealing more than $123,000 from the organization over a year and a half that paid for personal shopping sprees and legal fees.
Michelle Gorr, 51, was arrested in October after the president of the organization, Jacob Larkee, reported the theft in December 2023, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by The Gazette.
The affidavit alleges Gorr admitted to using the league’s bank account for personal reasons in an email to Larkee in December 2023. She claimed she was involved in a “contentious divorce” and needed the money to offset legal fees.
