Please correct me if I am wrong, but;

every single impartial audit of any division of the
administration of the APS, has revealed significant
administrative failure.

There has never been an audit of the most senior APS
administrators; the ones a step above the division leaders.

To illustrate;

an audit (impartial investigation) of the APS police
department revealed significant administrative failure.
But the senior administrator above the police
department one Tom Savage, was never audited on
his responsibility for letting the Police Department
get so far out of hand.

an audit of the Finance Division revealed significant
administrative failure. But the senior administrator
above the Finance Division, one Tom Savage,
was never audited on his responsibility for letting
the Finance Division get so far out of hand.


School board head honcho, Paula Maes said on the record;
"I will never allow an audit that will individually identify (corrupt and/or incompetent) administrators;like for example; Tom Savage."

They will argue that Tom Savage was fired for his
incompetence and/or corruption.

I would argue that retiring with honors
doesn't really count as being "fired".

Like Gil Lovato's half a year of paid leave
doesn't really count at being "fired".


The point is that, Tom Savage has been replaced with
another good ol' boy. Nothing has changed.
They got caught screwing up big time;
so they threw Tom Savage off the train,

and now its back to business as usual.

The corrupt and/or incompetent good ol' boy that ran the
APS Finance Division
  • without financially sound policies, and
  • without accountability to such policies as there were, and
  • who didn't keep records accurate and complete enough to send anyone to jail,

has been replaced by a good ol' boy who
has been aware of the problems for years, and
never reported them.


Good ol' boys don't blow the whistle on good ol' boys.

And then they get promoted.


Winston Brooks, any board member, any senior administrator
could refute these allegations if they were untrue.

They can't refute them because; they are true.

So he/they will stonewall the question.

If Winston Brooks had a good reason;
if he had any reason at all not to begin an immediate
full scale accountability audit of the leadership of the APS,

he would say it.

He wouldn't be ducking the question.


And there is not a damn thing you can do about it.

With the possible exception of being one of a large enough
crowd that shows up a board meeting and demands an
immediate audit of the leadership of the APS;

an audit that will individually identify the corrupt, the
incompetent, and the practices that enable them.


They can only get away with this for as long as
you let them.
