Jessica Grayson is a secretary at Washington High School. She is in charge of ordering janitorial supplies from Joe's Cleaning Center. Jessica is also authorized to write and sign the checks for these supplies. Jessica is friends with Jake Emerson, who works at Joe's. Once a month, Jessica writes an order for $300 worth of supplies that the school really doesn't need. Jake signs the business manager's name from Joe's on the checks and gives them back to Jessica. She cashes the checks and deposits them into her own savings account. Jake makes sure the supplies are never delivered to the school. Are Jessica and Jake both committing a crime? If so, what crime(s)?
