A laminated municipal badge, found zip-tied fourteen feet high on a utility pole, exposed a scheme that siphoned cash from city parking meters for at least seven years. How did a terminated employee's active credentials and a forgotten "dead drop" badge lead investigators to a monthly cash payout hidden inside municipal operations?
In this episode, we trace the discovery, the people involved, and the mechanics of the fraud that hinged on access credentials and schedule manipulation. Listen to learn how a single photograph set off an inquiry that revealed a covert "second payroll" and the question it raised about accountability in city systems.
