A2: Detroit

A Freep article about Detroit’s two public pension plans possibly breaking the law by destroying travel records soon after they close their books for the year quotes Ann Arbor attorney Bob Stevenson: ”Let’s face it, there may be a big component of junketeering that goes on with these seminars. To destroy these particular records as soon as the audit occurs means they’re being destroyed as soon as possible, and to me that just seems inconsistent with a willingness to allow meaningful inquiry into whether these are reasonable and necessary expenses. Auditors do not do that kind of thing.” [Source]
