Youth Baseball Coach Embezzles Parents' Money | Omaha News

A youth baseball organizer, Sam Leng, is now in custody after allegedly stealing over $18,000 from parents of Omaha Nighthawks players—some paying up to $1,250 per child—by dissolving the team and vanishing with the funds. Leng, who turned himself in admitting to a gambling addiction, reportedly used the money for bets and couldn’t repay the families. The betrayal left parents furious and kids without a season, highlighting how devastating it is when trust is broken in places where families pour their hearts—and hard-earned cash—into their children’s dreams.
