Cincinnati's Struggle Against Public Misconduct

  • Summary

  • Creating a more transparent and accountable city governance as we uncover the findings from our recent review of the city's Ethics Fraud, Waste, and Abuse Hotline. Expect to learn about the critical privacy issues and transparency concerns that have emerged since the hotline's oversight shifted to the solicitor's office in 2022. With 176 complaints filed over the past three years, the hotline's potential to effectively tackle fraud and abuse remains significantly stunted due to a lack of a structured process. Drawing on my expertise with the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, I offer insights into the importance of a trustworthy tip line for employees and highlight some eye-opening complaints, including political contributions and donor disclosures.


    We raise critical questions about the vulnerability of Cincinnati's public funding landscape. Despite the existence of a fraud hotline, skepticism remains about its effectiveness in preventing similar corruption. Join us as we explore the need for decisive action by the city solicitor's office and the hope for a more vigilant city council to champion fraud awareness and prevention in the future.
