For at least the past 8 years, the OIG has identified grant management as a significant challenge for the Department, not only in terms of making timely awards of grant funds, but also in maintaining proper oversight over grantees to ensure the funds are used as intended.
In addition, we initiated an audit to evaluate OJJDP’s grant making procedures. In FY 2007, Congress provided more than $100 million to OJJDP without earmarks and provided OJJDP an opportunity to solicit competitive proposals for new grant projects from the juvenile justice community. The ongoing OIG audit will examine how OJJDP announces competitive award programs, reviews applications for funding, and selects awardees.

Flores is going down and no one will save him. What he's done to the kids is disgraceful and I hope Waxman charges him with the crimes he committed.
