School police release principal tape

We're now hearing for the first time from a former high school principal, forced from his job due to improper use of a school credit card.
Jonathan Prince has just been demoted, and was given a 20 day suspension for misuse of school money.
Prince, who at the time in March was the principal of Palm Beach Gardens High, was facing questions from school police about how and why he would misuse a school district credit card.
His interview with school police was taped, and the district has just released that tape.
"It's my responsibility ultimately because I'm the principal but I'm disappointed that I didn't um, that I didn't pay as much attention as I should have clearly," Prince said.
School investigators determined Palm Beach Gardens High Principal Jonathan Prince went too far, using his school district-issued credit card for almost $4000 worth of questionable items.
Things like meals at Ruth's Chris..a high-priced steakhouse, Hooters, Outback, room service at a hotel in Naples, gift cards, candy roses for his staff, even a tuxedo rental for an ROTC ball.
Prince told school police he did not clearly understand what the card could and could not be used for.
"When it came to this stuff, it just is not, it has not been on my radar. I very clearly understand now how very serious this is. I mean how absolutely serious this is and I should know this. I should know it and I didn't and now I'm in a lot of trouble and I can tell you right now, um, I know it now," Prince told school police.
A school district spokesman says Prince has repaid the money and is being demoted to assistant principal.
The school district also has just released records involving another principal for the same sort of allegations--misuse of a school credit card.
But they determined that Jack Thompson, principal at Boca Raton Community Middle School, did not break any laws and did not violate school policy and will not face disciplinary action.
He had about $6800 in purchases of food and gifts that were scrutinized. In a few days, the district expects to release the investigative file on a third principal who also was investigated for the same activity.
