Chapter 18 - The procurement investigation

Independent auditors separated the transactions into categories.
Legitimate and properly priced:
Most of them.
Legitimate work with disclosure failures:
Several.
Questionably inflated emergency premiums:
Five.
Materially false certifications:
Three.
Investigators estimated direct government and contractor loss attributable to provable false representations at roughly:
$241,000.
Lower than the first suspicion.

Audits shrink stories.
Sometimes they enlarge them.

Ryan had not stolen millions.
He had manipulated a smaller slice of a multimillion-dollar legitimate business relationship.
