Instead of allowing vendors to bid on the job, Hunter steered the business to David Allen, a Georgia resident and owner of Education Consultants, authorities said.
Hunter arranged for more than $17 million worth of sales through Education Consultants, at the same time that Hunter and his family leased a large lake house from Allen, authorities said.
Allen ultimately sold the lake house to Hunter for about $150,000 below market value. Allen also hired Hunter’s son to work for another company he owns, and later hired Hunter himself, authorities said.
Hunter also utilized a Georgia car dealership to indirectly purchase two vehicles from Allen, authorities said.

Florida's GOP leaders want to punish Twitter, Facebook, Amazon and Google for taking steps against President Trump. These same GOP leaders have had nothing to say about the president's incitement of an insurrection, or in many cases to even acknowledge Joe Biden and the winner of a free and fair election. They're mad because the insurrection's leader can't tweet any longer.
Florida Attorney General had touted on her online biography her role on the board of directors to a conservative group that has been criticized for its role in the insurrection in Washington last week, according to a report in the Tampa Bay Times.
