MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) - A man known as a leader for Vermont’s education of children with disabilities has been arrested for felony embezzlement.

Montpelier police say Darren McIntyre, the former executive director of the Vermont Council of Special Education Administration, or VCSEA, allegedly embezzled more than $75,000 from the organization during his tenure from 2021 to 2023.

The investigation into McIntyre started back in October of 2024 when the company reported he had used VCSEA funds for personal gain.

McIntyre was issued a citation he’s scheduled to appear in court in September.
