auditors briefed the committee on possible violations of state law involving consulting contracts worth $750,000 and maintenance shop work worth $190,000.

It's the same on the Left Coast. Los Angeles Unified School District and King-Drew Medical Center, an L.A. a County Hospital, operate the same way as MD, SHA. Black Americans, in these circumstances, have an extreme sense of entitlement.
