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.
Deliberate ignorance, deliberate neglect, cover-up, reaping Oklahoma officials $ millions?
NORMAN OK (July 01, 2008)
The question is not are Oklahoma officials involved? They are, but claim it is not illegal!
Oklahoma lawmakers made sure it would not be illegal, hide any involvement and operate with full autonomy insuring state officials would avoid involvement that could be construed as a conflict of interest
Loopholes (falsely claimed to have been closed) in Oklahoma's Capital Formation Investment Act allows Oklahoma officials to hide their participation in a state funded program, and reap millions in unearned profits. While these same official claim there is nothing illegal occurring and praising the program's benefits.
The program created to operate with full autonomy allows certain unidentified venture Capital companies, using artificial loans to inflate an investment to nearly seven times the actual investment, then take, automatically, 200% of the actual investment in tax credits. Tax credits they can immediately sell obtaining the cash to fund the each investor's investment cost and pay each investor an additional 100% profit.
