Doyle found guilty in embezzlement case

SOUTH KINGSTOWN – A Washington County Superior Court jury on Dec. 5 found Daniel E. Doyle Jr., founder of the Institute for International Sport, guilty on all charges related to his embezzlement case.

Doyle was found guilty of 18 counts in all, including seven counts of embezzlement, one count of obtaining money under false pretenses, five counts of forgery and five counts of filing a false document. The charges stem from him misappropriating about $1.14 million from the nonprofit agency, which he founded in 1986.

During the trial, the state claimed that Doyle embezzled about $750,000 in salary and loan payments from 2005-2011.

The state also said Doyle embezzled $100,000 to pay for tuition payments for his daughter and $22,000 to fulfill a pledge he made to Bates College. •
