Dave Jansen testified as a forensic accounting expert for the plaintiff in Muscogee (Creed) Nation Distric Court case CV 2009-33 in which the Muscogee (Creek)
Nation administration and six MCN communities are battling over gaming
funds. Lawyers for the six communities had
requested more time to review audit reports, which were completed and
made available in August. The
investigations into the communities’ finances were conducted with a
focus on tracking gaming funds. Determining certain monetary amounts
and tracking those monies caused Jansen to believe practices within the
communities resulted in co-mingling of funds.
MCN controller Rodgers said the total of the monies seized from the communities amounted to $20 million to $21 million. Questions were directed to Rodgers as to the financial health of the Nation if the funds were to remain in the custody of MCN or if the funds were returned to the communities.
