The Fenty administration says it provided performance measures to the police department for a $100,000 grant to D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty ally Ron Moten’s Peaceoholics, but the measures were not included in the grant’s contract, according to documents received by the police union through a Freedom of Information Act request and obtained by The Washington Examiner.

Peaceoholics, a nonprofit group that works with at-risk youth, spent $97,500 of the $100,000 grant on salaries, the documents show. A large portion of the remaining cash was used to buy Wii and Xbox video game systems, games for each and DVDs.
