ISCC 'SHOWER TRAILERS' FINALLY REMOVED, ALONG WITH $184,708.62 OF TAXPAYER MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN

In March, 2023 I posted an article on this site titled IDAHO TAXPAYERS PAYING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR SHOWER TRAILERS WHICH HAVE NEVER BEEN USED.

In that post, I stated "By my calculations, if we round down the contract term to only 3 months, that equates to a bit more than $65,000. In actuality, it's more than $80,000." I based my estimations of both the rental duration and pricing on the contract between the Nevada company that owns the trailers and the IDOC.

According to official state accounting records produced on 9/21/23*, these 2 shower trailers were on-site at the ISCC from December 30, 2022 through September 7, 2023 - and never used. Despite not having been used, the taxpayers of the State of Idaho (you and me) paid a whopping $184,708.62 to simply store the trailers in a secure facility for United Site Services of Nevada.

Someone needs to be held accountable for what appears to be a clear case of embezzlement - and an investigation opened into which employees of the IDOC profited from sending Idaho tax dollars to an out-of-state vendor for services which were never used, and never intended to be used.

If you believe there is something shady going on, or you want an investigation into the who, what, why, when and how of your tax dollars being used for this obvious fraudulent conduct, contact the Office of the Idaho Attorney General, or your State Senator/Representative.
