When government finance professionals make the news, it’s rarely for the right reasons. In this X-Files-meets-Fiesta session, we’ll examine real-world cases of public employees who committed crimes and ethics violations, breaking down how small lapses escalated into major scandals. Through a guided analysis of headline-making cases, we’ll dissect the policies, internal controls, and oversight mechanisms that could have prevented the misconduct—or detected it sooner. The truth is out there, and so are the practical safeguards that help ensure your organization never becomes the next mysterious headline.
