Now UMass...which State agency has not had employee issues?


I guess I'm not shocked over this... and the companies offering money to employees are just as guilty.

 Three indicted for alleged kickback scheme at UMass

Speaking of criminal-justice matters: Is it time to bone up on our Ward Commission history? From Jeanette DeForge at MassLive: “Two University of Massachusetts employees who worked in the Physical Plant department were indicted for accepting payments and other kickbacks - including vacations to Mexico and a motorboat - from a contractors they were overseeing who were doing millions of dollars in work. The owner of Compass Restoration, of Ludlow, was also indicted for making the payments, according to a statement released by Attorney General Martha Healey.”

So Jim how much money was involved here? Are we talking a few trips to Mexico or are we talking 10s of thousands of dollars?

What the hell difference does it make how much is involved? these losers stole while being paid on your tax dollars and you can be sure they guy that was paying them off was adding the cost of those payoffs to the cost of his project so he was increasing what we the taxpayer had to pay there also. Double dipping into all of our pockets. $10 or $10 million these guys are still criminals and should be punished.
