The court case has been continued against a former Brookfield PTO treasurer accused of embezzling money.  39-year old Monica Bevilacqua was in court yesterday over allegations she stole $12,700 from Center Elementary School PTO's accounts over two years. 

Authorities believe she wrote herself 11 checks and made more than 180 personal charges on the PTO's credit card.  Bevilacqua reportedly signed another person's name on three of the checks. The credit card was used on Amazon, DoorDash food delivery and at other merchants.

The PTO does not receive any public funding from the town or its schools. 

She is facing charges of larceny, illegal use of a credit card and three counts of forgery.  The case was continued to March 27th.
