• This company’s CEO has to answer to the feds.

Virgie Dillard, the 70-year-old owner of Missouri Office Systems and Supplies, is in hot water for allegedly selling counterfeit electronics to a customer most people would rather not mess with: the U.S. Army.

Dillard and her employee Roland Evans were brought up on federal charges today. They’re accused of selling about $2.8 million worth of sham computer equipment to the Army Recreation Machine Program.

Evans was arrested today and made his initial appearance; Dillard is expected to surrender to authorities soon.
