Former Miami-Dade School Board Vice Chair Lubby Navarro, accused of using school district credit cards for personal expenses, is likely to be released from jail after a judge reduced her bond to $100,000.

Navarro, who was making a substantial income from various positions, including director of Government Affairs for the Memorial Healthcare System, is currently on unpaid leave and will have to surrender her passport upon release.
