WOBURN, Mass.– A Burlington man has been sentenced to two years in
state prison for stealing more than $120,000 from the nonprofit youth
group where he worked as a volunteer.
The state Attorney General’s office on Tuesday said a Middlesex
Superior Court judge on Friday also sentenced Raffi Donoyan to two
years in the House of Correction, but suspended the penalty for
five years.
The 49-year-old Donoyan had pleaded guilty in August to two counts
of larceny over $250. He was athletic director and a board member
for Watertown-based Homenetmen Eastern Region Inc. from early 2003 to
August 2005. The organization offers scouting and athletic activities
for youth of Armenian descent.
Prosecutors say Donoyan made cash withdrawals from the organization’s
account and wrote checks to himself.
