Report: Pentagon auditors altered records Saturday, January 10, 2004 Posted: 10:55 PM EST (0355 GMT) WASHINGTON (AP) -- Pentagon auditors spent 1,139 hours altering their own files in order to pass an internal review, say investigators who found that the accounting sleuths engaged in just the kind of wasteful activity they are supposed to expose. When the auditors in the New York City office learned well in advance which files a review team would check, they spent the equivalent of more than 47 days doctoring the papers and updating records from several audits, the Defense Department's inspector general concluded. Administrative staff, audit supervisors and other employees also participated in the scheme. The fabrication at the Defense Contract Audit Agency "certainly violates the spirit and intent" of government auditing standards and rules on ethical conduct, according to the inspector general's report obtained by The Associated Press. The fabrication was discovered in 2001, but the report on it was not disclosed until Tuesday. continues... cnn.com
