ATLANTA - The former chief financial officer of a company that made police and firefighters' uniforms for several metro Atlanta governments has been accused of scheming to defraud Citizens Trust Bank out of $770,000. <br>
<br>
According to a federal indictment, Jason Orenstein of JRO Group Inc. sold fraudulent invoices to the bank and in some cases diverted money to his personal use. <br>
<br>
JRO attracted the attention of federal authorities investigating Atlanta and Fulton County governments two years ago. Company officials were called before a federal grand jury and ordered to produce records concerning former Fulton County Commission Chairman Mitch Skandalakis, who was receiving retainers from JRO. <br>
<br>
JRO stopped paying Skandalakis after the federal investigation became public, Orenstein said at that time.
