Judge Upholds Felony Conviction of Former Stockton School Board President, Vacating Her Seat

She received two years of informal probation with a 45-day jail term stayed upon 120 hours of community service.

Overview

  • Angelann Flores was sentenced Monday for filing a false insurance claim, a felony that triggered the immediate vacancy of Stockton Unified’s Area 2 trustee seat by operation of law.
  • Terms include restitution, a prohibition on owning or possessing firearms, a requirement to provide a DNA sample, and an order not to drive without a valid license and insurance.
  • The 45-day county jail term will be stayed if she completes 120 hours of community service within one year under the sentence imposed in San Joaquin County Court.
  • In July, a jury convicted Flores of the false claim tied to a non-district car crash and acquitted her of embezzlement and misuse of a district credit card.
  • Defense efforts to reduce or dismiss the felony were rejected as the judge upheld the conviction, and Flores said she accepts responsibility and intends to fight to keep serving her community.
