If you have been following Bob Linn and I’s deep dive into rooting out those who participated in the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) ‘theft’ of $30 million of taxpayer funding and the firing of 198 innocent employees there is breaking news.
Attorney General Mike Hunter, who was allegedly in charge of investigating and preparing for the grand jury trial of the OSDH management team, resigned over an affair that links him to the Chief Operating Officer of OSDH!
As COO this woman would have not only known but would have had to participate in the scam. The point Bob and I were adamant about from the beginning was that the 198 lower level employees were mere pawns in the cover up of who was involved in this scam on the citizens of Oklahoma
When Bob and I began pursuing this starting with looking at the audits of OSDH we found Cindy Byrd, State Auditor and Inspector (SA&I), had not only not done her job but was aggressive in trying to block us from obtaining the audits that would help lead us to the truth. As we obtained more and more information pointing to incompetence at the State Auditor’s Office as part of the problem we received a five page letter from the Attorney Generals office that can only be described as an attempt to intimidate us into ending our quest. Looks like we may now know why the top state wide elected positions that should have been protecting us—the AG and the SA&I—were in fact conspiring to stop our work.
Folks there are many more who were involved, looked the other way or should have known and are still working at the OSDH drawing big paychecks paid for by you the taxpayer. Bob and I will continue digging until we have all the information that was covered up. Our next Open Records Request will be pointed directly at OSDH internal records.
If anyone who reads this knows names or events at any of the agencies either involved in the scam or the cover up contact me here and we will promise you that your name will never be known unless you authorize us to use it.
