11 CityTime Workers Have Been Indicted So Far
“Today’s announcement unfortunately sheds more light on just how flawed the management of the CityTime project was,” said Comptroller John C. Liu. “According to the indictment ‘virtually the entirety of the more than $600 million that was paid to SAIC was tainted directly or indirectly, by fraud.’ New Yorker’s can hope that this will eventually lead to restitution for the hundreds of millions of dollars paid on an out-of-control project, years overdue and, ten-fold over budget.” Two Executives Are Charged in Payroll Scandal * Carl Bell, was the chief systems engineer for the New York office of the contractor, Science Applications International Corporation or S.A.I.C. pleaded guilty to charges including two counts of wire fraud conspiracy, one count of wire fraud and money laundering conspiracy. 2 CityTime Fraud Suspects Flee Overseas: Authorities(NBC) *Mayor Mike Bloomberg Technodyne Arrests CityTime SAIC ScandalTax Payers Want Full Refund! * Liu Crows as CityTime Investigation Widens(NYO)
Containment Journalism On CityTime/NYPD Ticket Scandal
The Press is limiting itself to reporting on the CityTime Scandal only when the U.S. Attorney indicts someone. We do not know what role the city officials Mark Page or resigned Joel Bondy who he supervised as head of Office of Payroll Administration. Both men knew there were problems with the CityTime contract as the cost went up over 1000% ($63 million to $700 Million). This is not the only corruption story the press is covering passively. We still do not know which city official and or council members had there tickets fixed by the NYPD.
City Officals All Knew About CityTime Corruption
Where Are the Reporters Demanding Answers From These Guys?Page, Bondy, Bloomberg, DOI all knew about CityTime in 2003, when the former head of the city's Office of Payroll Administration Richard Valcich wrote a letter to SAIC complaining of waste and bloat in the main contract. In 2003 Valcich wrote: the city had spent "approximately $35 million on CityTime and does not have a tangible system to show for it."

City Council |
Why at a City Council oversight hearings about CityTime the past few years, no one at OPA or City Hall ever mentioned the Valcich letter?
Scroll down True News has interesting things to say but my blog was way a head of True News and the majority of newspapers but not all of course. Some major newspapers have taken my work and not credited me.

I did two posts today and a new YouTube which are important and now I have a question for you.
Was JellyBean secretly indicted making him the first SAIC employee and Gerarad Denault the head of operations for NYC SAIC the 2nd.......?
JellyBean is the nickname for an SAIC guy names in the Whistle Blower CNN Ireport but to date we haven not been given his real name and any info re: has he been indicted and made a deal with Preet Bharara and to date Preet has kept his name secret from us...and if he was indicted he was the 1st SAIC employee to be indicted way before Denault was indicted but it was kept secret perhaps to protect Preet ’s investigation?
By the way, what is Jelly Bean’s name?
If Jelly Bean has not been secretly indicted than when is he going to get indicted....?
If Jelly Bean has not been secretly indicted than when is he going to get indicted....?
