Lofink case ‘did not raise red flags’
By SEAN O’SULLIVAN, The News JournalState officials received a tip in January 2007 that an employee in the Division of Revenue was processing false claims for abandoned property and stealing thousands of dollars.
Eleven months later, they publicly confirmed a $1.2 million fraud in what is believed to be one of the largest thefts of state money in Delaware history.
Between the arrival of the first tip in January and a September halt to all abandoned-property claims, Anthony J. Lofink, the son of Rep. Vince Lofink, R-Glasgow, took more than $890,000, even as his supervisors in the Division of Revenue had been put on notice and an auditor was reviewing his work, federal court records show.
No wonder they’ve worked to keep this quiet.

Check out staffing, mission and results.
It is clear to me if we have the right purpose and staffing for each department we can pay the employees better and make sure they are in the correct department.
A very sad episode-right up there with the Psych Center.
Take a look at this.

Wait a minute, Jason. The administration of the Division of revenue occurred under
Wait a minute, Jason. The administration of the Division of revenue occurred under a Democrat, but you are a Democrat.
I thought we Dems never showed any consistency about criticizing our own.
Oh, by the way, can you show me where Dave Burris condemned Nancy Wagner on his blog. I can’t find it anywhere.
