"... APS, which depends on taxpayer support

for multi-million-dollar bond issues, can't afford continued public skepticism about the way the district handles public money."

That's what Trib editors wrote about problems with APS finances almost a month ago. Phill Casaus and his crew understand the problem and the potential impact on taxpayer support of the APS.

"... Albuquerque Public Schools officials ... don't seem as exigent about the disarray (in APS' accounting department) as they ought." the editors added.



The refusal of the leadership of the APS to conduct an audit, in the context of their declination to explain, defend, or even acknowledge their refusal, illustrates the absolute necessity of an audit.


Why won't Phill Casaus and company, ask the leadership of the APS to explain, to defend, or even to acknowledge that they are dedicated to escaping an honest and impartial accountability audit of the administration of the APS?

Except that they are themselves, corrupt?

And that there really is a conspiracy to cover up
an ethics and accountability scandal
in the leadership of the APS?
