Like the 3,200 other pages of evidence uncovered and descriptions of crimes on this site, this web page is only one part of a massive multi-state entanglement of government corruption and cover-up. See size
Evidence was uncovered in parts over years, and not in the same order as the crimes occurred or the evidence was created. Statements were made based on what was known at the time.
Dates are approximate because government filings and reports vary in some cases up to months if not This is part of cover up. One example is Oklahoma's Openbooks, which started out late with only a fraction of what was required to be added each year. Plus, the data was littered with data entry and spelling errors, meaning you have to go through one entry at a time. This amount to more than 17,000 entries in 2017.
The FBI started a campaign Monday in the Oklahoma City area to increase awareness of its involvement in investigating public corruption.
The "Don't Turn a Blind Eye" campaign, which includes new billboard messages in the metro area, encourages the public to report corruption by email to OklahomaCity@FBI.gov.
"We hope to alleviate and look into public corruption more. Hopefully this campaign will help us address that," said Chris Landolt, supervisory special agent.
Landolt also told news reporters Monday about the importance of reporting tips to the FBI.
"Public corruption erodes the confidence and trust of the taxpayer in government and ultimately costs that taxpayer," he said. "Public corruption is when a public official abuses his or her public office or position for a personal gain or benefit. Often this is a monetary gain."
Landolt said this will be the first of many campaigns to focus on the various aspects of what the FBI does.
