Also interesting is that the team only had the time to investigate a few line items on hundreds of spreadsheet pages, of just one local chapter of ALPA.

Carl,

My rule of thumb regarding these type of issues: Never jump directly to malice when incompetence can fit the bill. There may be some type of embezzlement going on, but just as plausible (rule of thumb) could be a poor contract - remember they are using Other Peoples Money (OPM) and that hardly ever ends in an efficient, well thought out deal.
