Interesting details. When Detroit goes under an EFM [[which seems to be where we're quickly headed) much of this is going to be sorted thru: the bosses and the subordinates et al. The city's largest union is going to be forced to submit to some of the same applied to the DPS union: more layoffs, pay cuts, severe contract revisions or worse...
Perhaps even the joyful check for 'ghost employees' and the discovery of fraudulent paper trails [[most which are probably poorly disguised - due to the long-held systemic 'nonchalant' approach to fraud).
As this has been going on so long: fraud related to payrolls, doctored time sheets etc, 'friends and family' hook-ups etc., it will require only minimal investigation to uncover.
And it's tough to try to damage-control broad-spectrum fraud once investigations start. The parties would have to try to recall/ unravel a matrix of stealing...
Those who've looked the other way may have to account for a great deal too. It's not going to be pretty.
