How America’s youngest state auditor uncovered the largest public corruption scandal in the history of the nation’s poorest state
"A must read" with all the thrills of a John Grisham novel – for fans of shocking true crime exposés like Black Edge and Bad Blood (Peter Schweizer, author of Secret Empires)
This riveting exposé details how a small team of auditors and investigators, led by the youngest State Auditor in the country, uncovered a brazen scheme where the powerful stole millions in welfare funds from the poor in a sprawling conspiracy that stretched from Mississippi to Malibu.
Well-connected donors, highly placed officials, and popular public figures diverted tens of millions of dollars from the federal government’s TANF – temporary assistance for needy families – program until a Republican auditor, his small team of dedicated investigators, and a Democratic prosecutor joined forces to hold them accountable in the face of intense obstruction and harassment.
Peopled with unforgettable characters – from the perpetrators; to the impoverished citizens for whom the money was intended; to the investigators, prosecutors, and reporters who held them to account – Mississippi Swindle is a political and true crime drama that highlights larger crises while appealing to a broad nationwide audience.
