US Attorney declines prosecution of former VA executives who otained more than $400,000 in questionable moving expenses through a relocation program. They also forced lower-ranking regional managers to accept job transfers against their will. Rubens and Graves then stepped into the vacant positions themselves, keeping their pay while reducing their responsibilities.

I wonder if money exchanged hands under the table...

You have to remember, these VA Execs are usually long term VA and/or Govt employees, well versed in CYA. Quite possibly, they veiled their wrong doing in such a way, that the Prosecutors believed it was an UN-win-able prosecution and thus a further waste of Federal $$.

You would think, a Civil Tort Claim could be brought, where only a Preponderance of Evidence is necessary to win the Financial Judgment.

These VA Execs sound corrupt, not dumb. They probably even paid Fed Tax on their ill gotten gains.

I agree with Gastone.  These VA execs who succeeded in stealing money belonging to Veterans did so with skill and experience in corruption.  They also did it with a network of  other corrupt VA execs and coworkers, that they are able to intimidate.    They are like Joe Montana, and know exactly how to avoid the goons coming after them.  It isnt their first rodeo.   A weak, corrupt,  VAOIG, and weak Attorney General makes their job easy.
