Reply To: Here we go again with alleged theft of public funds

Avi k, what you say makes sense but doesn’t always work. Some recent examples. A trusted frum CPA was just sentenced to 5 years in Federal prison for stealing payroll taxes; a frum real estate attorney was convicted of stealing millions in escrow funds; a frum CPA ( and former day school president ) was indicted for falsely certifying shell companies as legitimate as part of a multimillion dollar pump and dump scheme ; a frum, respected CPA firm helped a yeshiva defraud the state of $7 million.

Unfortunately, hiring professionals doesn’t always work.
