Default Kevin W. Concannon of Iowa DHS is in charge

Has Kevin W. Concannon retrieved the missing MILLIONS?

Then Governor Vilsack hired him to bring Iowa DHS more federal
dollars.
That's what Vilsack's press release said when he hired Concannon.
Did Vilsack know about the mess Concannon left behind in Maine?

NOW the former CIETC CEO Cunningham
is being checked for mental competency to stand trial?
When's Concannon getting checked?

These clowns in a state employment training agency most
Iowans never heard of until the fiasco had extra Millions of
budget money at the end of their year.
They simply divided it up and paid themselves big bonuses.

Uh Oh! It hit the fan! And the FEDS are ****ed!

( Not OK in a government agency, is this sorta thing OK in ""non-
profits""? )

Defense Delivers Opening Arguments in CIETC Trial

DAVENPORT IOWA (AP) - The CIETC trial continues Tuesday in Davenport
with a federal jury hearing from the defense.

Three people with ties to the defunct job-training agency are accused
of being part of a conspiracy to funnel money into their salaries and
cover up misspending of government funds.

On trial are the agency's former chief accountant Karen Tesdell,
former consultant Dan Albritton and former Iowa Workforce Development
deputy director Jane Barto.

Defense attorneys say the three are victims of other corrupt leaders
at the Central Iowa Employment and Training Consortium -- especially
former CEO Ramona Cunningham.

She was to go to trial, but a judge has ordered a mental competency
hearing in her case.

In her absence, defense attorneys are blaming her for most of the
troubles at the agency.

Barto's lawyer, Leon Spies, says it's about "lies and deception and
trickery."

Tesdell's lawyer, Aaron Hamrock, says Cunningham "called the shots."
