  1. Insane I want my tax Money back how was this allowed to happen for this long and go ? This far ..people were not doing their work but yet they were taking our tax money.

  2. They come here and claim that they don’t trust our government but they’re good at ripping off the tax paying citizens. These people get away with everything because they are a protected group. Makes me sick!!!

  3. Trying to use white collar crimes as fodder instead of reporting on rising violent crime and fudged crime statistics is pure journalistic negligence.
    And I hope the people see through it! But many in MN have such a blind hatred of white collars that they're likely to just continue sitting in the pot of hot water until it's boiling and being mad at the wrong people.

  4. 1 trillion seconds equals 31,700 years. Our states oversight of our tax dollars equals zero. Jail time for fraud should be quadrupled. The governor, the legislature, and the government employees who have allowed this to happen should all be held accountable as well. What an embarrassment Minnesota has become.
