Prosecutors spent much of the day trying to establish that Northwest Florida State College administrators new little about the Destin airport facility until it was approved by lawmakers. In one exchange, former Vice President for Curriculum, Dr. Jill White, said she only became involved when she was instructed to find classes to be taught at the facility. Prosecutors had her read from an email exchange between herself and college president Bob Richburg.

�These are programs of study, or possible programs of study that were not offered at the time by the college, but were programs that existed on approved state program listings that in my opinion would have been appropriate for the Destin facility,� said White.

White and others testified that they were instructed to find classes �dealing with emergency management� but they replied the center could not sustain such classes. Samson is charged with steering six million state dollars disguised as an emergency operations center but was really for an airplane hanger for a political contributor.
