Jackson Jambalaya

Oh no!

Also, why not include the number of gallons of fuel allegedly stolen by these allged perps?

Dude bought $9500 worth of gas in four months? Dang.

Anthony and Carville got them some cheap gas.
I think it was a conspiracy or RICO violation

I worked in state gov for a few years and was assigned a vehicle with fuelman card. The card is assigned to the vehicle. Mileage and a personal pin are required with every fuel transaction. You would have to be really, really stupid to try this.

I'm almost convinced that if you remember your fourth-grade math, you can divide total amount of money pumped by a rounded cost per gallon, and come up with it. But then what would you do with the answer?

How do you spend almost 10k on fuel in three months? It's high, but not that high!

Fuelman or foolman?

What would you then baby if I bought you a tank of gas….?

$9,500 ... he was probably being a big shot and filling up his friend's tanks. He probably thought the gas card was like his EBT card. More free stuff.

My guess is he was fueling up other people's cars for cash. For example they give him 40 dollars and he put 100.00 in their tank on the card

it says he is a truck driver, I am assuming the 9500 dollars was filling up a big rig

@ "Mileage and a personal pin are required with every fuel transaction. You would have to be really, really stupid to try this."

Unless of course you managed to acquire someone else's PIN. Also in my experience it matters not one whit at the time of purchase what mileage you enter. It will work even if the mileage is less than the time before. But presumably a bean counter might count it later.

2008 article WLBT:

"One thousand eighty eight city (of Jackson 2008 )employees have Fuelman credit cards to gas up city vehicles- an audit indicates out- of- control spending by 945 Jackson workers who may have incorrectly used those cards. There are 9,288 possible misuses of the cards during the three month audit alone. City officials say that indicates 86% of workers with Fuelman cards may have used them inappropriately, even illegally.

"There actually are pin and credit cards being used in Brookhaven and then being used to fill up a tank in Jackson 15 minutes later. In Gulfport a local employee that used several credit cards and several pin numbers over the course of 15 or 20 minutes to fill up an enormous amount of gas," said Weill.

If the card is used incorrectly, something called an exception code is generated. Sources told us more than 90% of the Fuelman cards used by city employees in the past 90 days triggered an exception. The city's chief administrative officer and public works director said they are on top of the problem.

Councilman Marshand Crisler says, if gas is being stolen at taxpayer expense, workers should be prosecuted."

No worries. They on top of it.

Shad continues to prosecute only those with no political power. Until he grows a pair and for example takes on the corruption In Rankin County for example he’s just another corrupt politician. Until we start electing people with true integrity and our best interest at heart, we will never be better.

Nice sleuthing, 3:43! This explains much.

I have never met Shad. I wouldn't him from any other 13 year old at the Middle School. I will admit that for all the "Shad just gets low hanging fruit" complaints. Shad gets more fruit than Donna's #6 on Hwy 49 South.
A whole lot of corruption has been stopped. Love him or hate him, you have to admit that Shad has done more than any other state auditor.

@6:19 let's add Leflore County to your list, and I agree with everything you have said.

Shad & his investigators are catching others while Shad publishes his book on state time & spends millions with a Boston ( Harvard College grads) company to regurgitate a report copied from reports done over the last 40 years.

So funny. Great work little fish!
Only slightly less than the $2M you misappropriated. Keep working little fish, you’ll earn that all back. Wooohooo!!!! One dime at a time.

@6:19
The whole state has been a corrupt cesspool for over one hundred years. This is all an illuminated illusion to convince you it’s different. It’s not. This state’s still a cesspool.

Blame Jackson on Dems, whatever. The pols in Jackson are amateurs compared to the state pols. The state is last or near last in everything for a reason. Point at Jackson, pass blame, distract. The STATE is a shithole.
