Journal finally covers APS Audit Director Scandal

The Journal has finally covered the story link, that
Larry Barker broke four days ago. link

The essential elements are there, except that no mention
was made of the fact the he was not just an "auditor" but
that he was actually the Director of Internal Audits, and
had just been vetted for and promoted to that position barely
one month before.

Neither did the Journal report that Kimbrell, who had
worked in the APS Finance Division for some 15 years and
never blew the whistle on any of the irregularities that were
identified in the Meyners Audit, and which
have likely cost taxpayers millions of dollars.

Thanks for the explanation. I wondered why this was news now, since the firing happened back in in June. Also, they didn't say if the position has been advertised or filled since then.

By the way, both your links are to the same item.

Michelle, thanks for the heads up on the link. The link is repaired and goes to Larry Barkers expose.
