Published: June 3, 2008
A former interim CEO of the Crispers restaurant chain has agreed to plead guilty to several charges in a scheme to steal from the company.
David C. Haas, 45, of East Hanover, N.J., was interim chief executive of Lakeland-based Crispers in 2007. Publix Super Markets, which owns Crispers, originally hired Haas to examine Publix's investment in Crispers. It later installed him as interim CEO.
According to U.S. Attorney's Office documents, Haas directed Crispers employees to transfer more than $403,000 of Crispers money into his personal bank accounts in New Jersey, telling Crispers employees that the payments were for company business.
Haas has agreed to plead guilty to three counts of interstate transportation of stolen property, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
