$5 million of terror grant was misused by police chiefs group | Columbus Dispatch Politics
$5 million of terror grant was misused by police chiefs group | Columbus Dispatch Politics
About $227,000 was improperly used to send the Ohio police officials to Turkey to learn about terrorism. More than $180,000 was misspent on slick books and brochures about the project, award plaques and lapel pins that were not related to the grant objective. And more than $800,000 was given to the association's executive director in bonuses that were "unreasonable, unallowable, and inconsistent with grant guidance," according to the federal audit.
In addition, of 832 timesheets required to verify salaries and wages during the three grant years, only 85 were documented.
