The District Attorney for the National District, Jose Manuel Hernandez, has received the proof of malfeasance by the Ministry of Education under Milagros Ortiz Bosch from current minister Alejandrina German. Although Ortiz Bosch told Hoy reporters that the case would not "tarnish her reputation", German and her staff are filing a complaint stating that over one million pesos per day was misspent on the school breakfast program during the former administration. In fact the exact figure is nearer the two million peso mark, RD$1,855 441. The complaint states that over 300,000 of the school breakfasts were "lost" each day. The brief accepted by the DA says that each day 371,832 rations were sent to unknown locations since they exceeded the total enrollment of the schools that were taking part in the program. As well as the documents relating to the school breakfast program, German also handed over documents relating to the theft of a large number of school desks and other furniture from government warehouses, and the papers relating to the purchase of a commercial plaza in Puerto Plata for RD$11 million. German left seven boxes of files with the DA.
