I've always been amused by how the private citizen will always be held accountable for any wrong doing, which is how it should be, but should you be a government worker the same standards just don't apply.
Once the investigation of these two women that held high level jobs at the VA was concluded and found guilty they never had to pay back any of the overcharges in their fabricated moving expense, in excess of $100, 000.00 nor did they serve any jail time. They were just reassigned to lower level jobs in the VA. Most likely scheduling appointments.
