NORFOLK, Virginia - A former employee of Norfolk State University's music department pleaded guilty to felony embezzlement Tuesday for misuse of a state credit card issued to the school's director of bands.Sean Summers, 33, pleaded guilty in Circuit Court and was sentenced to five years with all time suspended pending good behavior. He also agreed to pay the university $6,500 in restitution over the next five years.
Summers, who had been an employee at NSU since 2009, stopped working for the university Aug. 23.
Norfolk State officials said Summers used a credit card that was issued to O'Neill Sanford, who had served as director of bands for 13 years until he was relieved of those duties in September. Sanford retains his position as associate professor of music, and Paul Adams is serving as interim band director.
