According to a report by the Rome News-Tribune, Derry Richardson, and his wife Lisa, have vacated the property. Derry Richardson, who had worked as a Maintenance Director for the school system, stands accused of inflating and falsifying invoices paid by the system.

His wife and eleven others have also been arrested in connection with the case and charged with violating the Georgia Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
