GasBoy

This is almost identical to the same system that is used by the Town.
The following is a brief description of this system

• Timely management reports FleetKey provides 24-hour access and control of your fleet, including users, quantity, and product types. The system also reports all fuel usage data, including reasonable odometer check, MPG calculation, maintenance due reminders, and tank gauge interface. Unattended fleet managementFleetKey identifies your users and/or vehicles, controls access to your fuel dispensing equipment, and controls the types of fuels and the maximum amount of fuel that can be dispensed.

Former Town Supervisor Sutton only had to turn in vouchers for every time that he put his key into the GasBoy and fueled his vehicle[s].  Had he done that, then the accounting of the gas would have been complete. No questions asked by the auditors.  So why did Sutton not turn in the vouchers?  Was he lazy, or did he not care about the accounting/budget part of his job?  Wasn't Sutton the Budget Officer for the town?  What reason did Sutton have for not filling out the vouchers? Was he trying to make someone else look bad?

Sampie had this planned all along as part of his re-election strategy. He has exposed the Town Board members lack of leadership in dealing with this blatant misuse of the Town's assets which they are paid to manage. If this had happened to a business instead of the Town the audit results would have led to someone being found culpable for the loss and the appropriate legal actions would follow. Instead it now appears the Town Board is going to ignore the situation and hope that it goes away.

What a genius! Sampie the genius!
Shoots himself in the head so he can blame the bullet. How clever!
One has to ask, though, does he really have the depth to concoct a plan such as this one?
Rob the bank, get caught, just so you can expose the board of directors for making bad loans?
I don't see it, anon 7:24, got another theory?

anon 8:20,
It's called satire. I really didn't think anyone who knows Sampie could believe he's capable of that much forward thinking. Most people caught in his situation would be packing their bags and moving out of state to avoid possible prosecution.
