概要
How One Man Hid $938,000 in Plain Sight with Road Salt

A hidden $33-per-ton gap in municipal road salt bills quietly funneled $938,000 of public money over seven years into one administrator's accounts - and it all hinged on a single packing slip and an unnoticed folder. How did a routine pallet of salt and a memo about "administrative consistency" keep a scheme alive until one county surveyor photographed the price?

In this episode, we trace the cooperative's formation, the role of its sole administrator, and the sequence of invoices, memos and missed checks that allowed the discrepancy to grow. We follow the moment Hartwell Supply began sharing prices directly and the photograph that began to unravel the numbers - what happened next?
