内布拉斯加州审计员迈克·弗利 （Mike Foley） 宣布内布拉斯加州凯伦协会是“财政列车失事和耻辱”，此前一项审计发现，从 2023 年 7 月到 2024 年 12 月，内布拉斯加州凯伦协会可能滥用了 142,752 美元联邦拨款资金中的 99% 以上。 Nebraska State Auditor Mike Foley declared the Karen Society of Nebraska a "fiscal train wreck and disgrace" after an audit found it likely misused over 99% of $142,752 in federal grant funds from July 2023 to December 2024. 该报告揭示了广泛的问题,包括未核实的承包商付款、缺乏文件以及23 544美元支付重叠工时,而执行主任James Knyawhtoo则从事全职技术工作。 The report revealed widespread issues, including unverified contractor payments, lack of documentation, and $23,544 paid for overlapping work hours while executive director James Knyawhtoo held a full-time tech job. 非营利组织对Knyawhtoo拥有的一座林肯房产支付了抵押贷款,将18 900美元转入一个身份不明的PayPal账户,并在无法解释的西方联盟交易中进行了14 649美元的交易。 The nonprofit made mortgage payments on a Lincoln property owned by Knyawhtoo, transferred $18,900 to an unknown PayPal account, and conducted $14,649 in unexplained Western Union transactions. 审计员发现董事会没有批准,没有税务申报,Knyawhtoo停止了合作。 Auditors found no board approvals, no tax filings, and Knyawhtoo ceased cooperating. Foley将此案移交检察官,称滥用资金是对纳税人信托的背叛。 Foley referred the case to prosecutors, calling the misuse of funds a betrayal of taxpayer trust.
