One Twist Is All It Takes

On the heels of his most recent book on government fraud and mismanagement, Petrucelli created this interactive case study and accompanying notebook approach about a real-life government corruption case. Working with Walt Pavlo, Jr., a contributor to Forbes.com and a nationally recognized speaker on white collar crime, Petrucelli conducted interviews and reviewed court documents and news articles to bring this case to life. By creating an interactive case study Petrucelli and Pavlo present a hardworking elected county auditor, mother of six, Kay Rogers, who became embroiled in a sweeping government corruption case. Petrucelli, an adjunct professor and forensic accountant, dissects Kay's story with an approach that helps accounting students, licensed professionals, public workers and forensic accountants develop the soft-skills needed to detect, deter, and more importantly, prevent fraud.
