Earlier this week, Yawn Doc published a lengthy and patently snoozy exposé about an embezzlement investigation involving former Performing Arts Council of Edmond (a.k.a. PACE) president Kyle Owen.
The gist of the story is that Kyle – who is also the “Director of Worship Arts” for New Covenant United Methodist Church in Edmond – allegedly made more than 100 personal charges totaling nearly $12,000 on the booster club’s dime while serving as its President in 2023 and 2024.
The money was supposed to support Edmond students and their arts programs, but instead it covered things like tires, cookies, and a suspicious number of Venmo payments to his daughters. Surprisingly, though, not one transaction involved denim.
