Louisville Audit Finds Issues With DOC

The state’s year-end audit of Louisville Metro Government has identified more than 30 serious problems with the city’s financial reporting practices, including the Corrections Department’s loose handling of inmate cash and a $950,000 loan to the Cordish Cos. that lacked public accountability.

Three of the most serious findings deal with weak financial management in the Department of Corrections, including its handling of cash; its difficulty in collecting inmate booking fees; and its failure to reconcile money in inmates’ accounts when they are released.
