LAPD hit for purchasing
The LAPD under former chief William Bratton mismanaged and mishandled millions of dollars of taxpayer money - violating city policies in buying supplies and hiring vendors, according to an internal department audit.Tony Castro in the Daily News
Covering the 2007-2008 fiscal year, the audit revealed serious bungling in the department's purchasing process, which accounts for $60 million in spending annually, KNX News Radio reported Monday.
Although the audit was completed in late summer, as Bratton prepared to leave amid praise for reducing the city's crime rate, it was not made public until this week, KNX reported.
