Scam rigs CM system
New internal control measures and a background-check policy have started in Prince William County's IT department to prevent corruption following an embezzlement scandal, says The Washington Post.
Earlier this year, four men, including Maneesh Gupta, the IT department's former assistant CIO, were indicted on 153 charges that included racketeering, bid-rigging, forgery, obtaining money by false pretenses and money laundering over five years.
Officials claim the men rigged the county's contracting system to send $9 million to companies they created.
