But no arrest, of course.

Knox trustee asks TBI to scrutinize alleged unauthorized pay

KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE - Employees of the Knox County trustee's office were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in bonuses, travel, overtime and compensatory time payments in the past two years, including one who got $182,000 beyond his base salary, prompting an investigation into the office's payroll system by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

Records obtained by the News Sentinel this week show Haun was paid $195,440.58 last year and $122,888.62 in 2007, far more than his regular base pay of about $68,000 a year. His extra compensation was categorized primarily as compensatory time.

As my city council says, "Knoxville must be the most corrupt city on Earth."

Knoxville now holds the world record for bogus overtime rackets.
