Former Local Teacher Pleads Guilty In Cancer Hoax

Westerville Police

 Sentencing is scheduled March 23rd for a former Westerville and Columbus City Schools teacher who pleaded guilty Thursday to charges of masterminding a hoax in which she collected thousand of dollars in paid leave by falsely claiming she had cancer. 

Prosecutors say 47-year-old Christine Gill also falsely claimed that her husband had died of cancer. She was charged last year, and resigned when authorities began investigating. 

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
