Former law-enforcement boss at the Arizona Game and Fish Department, John G. Romero, embezzled thousands of dollars from an undercover account set up to catch wildlife poachers. He created a covert bank account using a fake identity and siphoned public money for three years before detection. An investigation concluded that Romero improperly authorized his own expenses, with most withdrawals occurring on days he did not work and when his personal bank account was low. He resigned while under investigation in early February 2013. ([coueswhitetail.com](https://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/40513-azgf-in-the-news-1/?utm_source=openai))
