Three men embroiled in a virtual schools fraud scheme now have pleaded guilty to federal charges.
David Webb Tutt, a retired Marengo County football coach; Tom Sisk, former superintendent of Limestone County Schools; and Greg Corkren, who ran a company used to obtain public money for inflated enrollment numbers to the co-conspirators, each changed their plea from not guilty earlier this month. A federal magistrate accepted their changes of plea Thursday.
In a virtual hearing, Tutt’s lawyer said that Tutt had agreed to cooperate with prosecutors and testify against remaining defendants if needed.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) A former head of an Alabama school district has pleaded guilty to a federal fraud charge.
Tom Sisk, former superintendent for Limestone County Schools, entered the plea Thursday in U.S. District Court in Montgomery to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States. He appeared by video teleconference in front of U.S. Magistrate Judge Jerusha T. Adams, multiple news agencies reported.
Sisk is one of six people facing charges in an alleged multi-million dollar scheme. Prosecutors said the indictment alleges that the defendants were involved in a complicated scheme to fraudulently enroll students in public virtual schools. Private school students were wrongly counted as being enrolled in online classes through public schools to boost attendance by hundreds and obtain additional state funding, the indictment said.
