Former Metro Manager Sentenced in Fraud Scheme With Former NFL Player Brian Carpenter

A former Metro assistant superintendent was sentenced Tuesday to prison and probation for defrauding the transit agency of more than $180,000 in a scheme involving an agency credit card and janitorial supplies that were never delivered.

Kirby F. Smith, 54, was in charge of Metro’s maintenance and custodial services division when, prosecutors say, he worked with a former National Football League player to repeatedly ring up charges on a Metro credit card in exchange for cash in 2014 and 2015.
