'Recycled' School PCs Found In Africa
School District, City Controller Investigating
The Philadelphia School District wants to know how its computer equipment ended up in Africa.
A recent PBS Frontline documentary showed a printer with a sticker labeling it property of the Philadelphia School District at a West African landfill.
The district said it paid a recycler to remove the printer. That recycler says it would be impossible for him to know what happened.
The district and the city controller are investigating.
