FF operating in California ?

......LOS ANGELES — Eight officials from an impoverished Californian town were arrested Tuesday on charges of paying themselves vast salaries at the expense of local taxpayers, prosecutors said.

..............But while local people went hungry, town manager Robert Rizzo paid himself 787,000 dollars last year -- nearly twice as much as US President Barack Obama -- even though his town only has 38,000 residents, prosecutors allege.

..............The officials were charged with fraud, civil conspiracy, waste of public funds and breach of fiduciary duty.
