2025年11月21日公布的一份Des Moines公立学校报告发现该区在雇用前警长Ian Roberts时合理依赖国家搜索公司JG Consulting(JG Consulting),后者于2025年9月因联邦指控谎称美国公民身份而被捕。 A Des Moines Public Schools report released on November 21, 2025, found the district reasonably relied on national search firm JG Consulting when hiring former superintendent Ian Roberts, who was arrested in September 2025 on federal charges of falsely claiming U.S. citizenship. 调查显示，JG Consulting提供了简短的七年背景调查，遗漏了包括2012年马里兰州鲁莽驾驶定罪和2022年宾夕法尼亚州武器指控在内的关键记录，并提交了一份简历，但其教育经历存在轻微但未被标记的差异。 The investigation revealed JG Consulting provided an abbreviated seven-year background check, missed key records including a 2012 Maryland reckless driving conviction and a 2022 Pennsylvania weapons charge, and submitted a resume with a minor but unflagged discrepancy in Roberts’ education history. Roberts原来自圭亚那,也假称获得博士学位,并被发现持有四件火器,包括一辆在他的校车内。 Roberts, originally from Guyana, also falsely claimed a doctorate and was found with four firearms, including one in his school vehicle. 该区向JG Consulting公司支付了35 000美元,它计划利用对该公司正在进行的诉讼中的调查结果,该公司否认责任,声称它在法律上没有义务核查移民身份。 The district, which paid $35,000 to JG Consulting, plans to use the findings in an ongoing lawsuit against the firm, which denies responsibility, stating it was not legally obligated to verify immigration status. 罗伯茨已辞职,正在等待2026年3月的审判。 Roberts has resigned and is awaiting trial in March 2026.
