An Inspector General report last year found Grave abused her position of power by orchestrating a move from the East Coast to Minnesota and wrongly racked up $130,000 in taxpayer-paid moving expenses.
The VA attempted in November to discipline Graves by cutting her pay and demoting her to an Arizona veteransâ facility.
Graves appealed the decision with the Merit Systems Protection Board, a panel that protects federal merit systems and employees against abuses by agency management.
This week, a judge found in a 41-page decision that the VA was inconsistent in doling out discipline to Graves and reversed her demotion. Graves will be reinstated to the same level she served as chief of the St. Paul Regional Benefits Office.

For $130,000.00 she could have bought her own brand new semi to haul her crap here with.
This is a disgrace. Anyone who knows what this individual was involved in, not just the stealing of taxpayer money by taking $130,000.00.to make a voluntary move to a very short distance away she ruined the lives and careers of employees who were no more than whistle blowers. This is another case where a judge was somehow coerced, and probably paid off, to reverse a correct decision. The judge should be investigated. Odds are they are on the take too.
Crime does pay.....
Kneel! Kneel before your government employee masters you filthy swine taxpayers!
Bring your government employee masters fragrant offerings of bribes and bonuses lest they strike you down!
Hail! Hail to our government employee masters!
Every Democrat is a corrupt thug. Thugs take care of their own.
The Merit Systems Protection Board should be renamed the Crappy Employee Retention Board. I rarely see anybody getting favorable results from them that shouldn’t be fired.
ok, then fire her thieving ass.
Who says that incompetence and corruption don’t pay, esp. under the Obama regime and stupid/corrupt judges?
Remove the damn corrupt judge.
How about the judge?
