We conducted an investigation of an Amtrak executive based on multiple allegations involving nepotism in hiring practices, steering of contracts to a particular vendor, and using an Amtrak contractor who later became a full-time employee to assist him with personal work. Our investigation confirmed that the executive engaged in improper hiring, conflicts of interest, and gross mismanagement of Amtrak resources.
