And It's the justice's fault, it takes some time to do these, as the Columbus Mayor's wife decided to steal from her company too, and it took a little over a year to sentence her. She got a fine.

She was caught because she did not pay one month's $75k Pepsi bill. No matter what form (bottled or syrup) that is a lot of soda pop.
The problem is KI is a Coke park. Is this $75k for potato chips and other salty snacks (PepsiCo owns FritoLay)?
Is there a mistake in the article? Who knows. While the details are not newsworthy, it would be interesting to learn what and when the $75k was truly for.
And while KI was a Coke park under Paramount, (I do not know if that has changed), the current parent company, Cedar Fair, is a Pepsi touting company. And Cedar Fair did not assume control until after the close of the 2006 season.
