the article doesn't suggest if she had another job/career than that of comptroller, but didn't ANYONE think that someone on a comptroller's salary was able to buy horses and property and three homes and dozens of cars?

Whatever happened to the concept of “checks & balance?”
Sell her horses, all her assets, make RESTITUTION...then lock her up.

There was once a Sec of the Treasury from Texas who moved all the state’s accounts to a new bank. Later that banked loaned the Sec and some friends money to buy some land in South Austin. That land was later sold to the state for a new expressway. Isn’t that special?

Does anyone else notice that many of these “insider” crimes, especially at the Municipal level are done by middle-aged women.

There must be more to menopause than crankiness. ;)

When a government official of a small town can get her hands on tens of millions of dollars, and in years it is only discovered by accident, clearly government is too big and powerful.

if this happened in Dixon, it is likely 1/10000000 of what goes on in Chicago and Cook County every day.

Once again, proof that government is the least efficient part of any society. We need as little of it as possible.

Also note, this if from a British paper. Any reports on any American sources?

It sounds like she made a “mistake”.

Dixon is about 35 miles west of me. We’ve discussed this, and can’t see how she could get away with this, especially on such a grand scale. One account I read earlier claimed she had a motor home worth around $2.5 million. One “ranch” was in Wisconsin, another in Illinois. Earlier accounts also had the total figure around $30 mil. Doesn’t anyone monitor the books?
