Glad I watched it. It should probably be required watching for every small town in America. Too easy to steal, apparently.

Very watchable and interesting
Every Business, City, Partnership and Bank Must Watch & Learn
We studied this story in a Corruption class of how Rita Crundwell stole over 50 million dollars from her tiny hometown over 20 years. This documentary laid it all out so well though. With the actual people who worked beside her (hat off to coworker Kathe Swanson who discovered the massive theft!) telling the story plain and simple. That is the importance of this documentary. It was so easy for Rita to do this. We all need to learn from this. I really appreciated how this story was told start to finish seamlessly. The selling of the quarter horses was heartbreaking. The actual footage really made this film.
Oh..what a tangled web we weave...
Oh Rita? Such an impressive woman In the show-horse arena. How is someone with so much to lose, able to continue in her nefarious behavior without pulling back on the reigns? Simply amazing! This has to be a kleptomaniac world record. And the lack of detection by the other authorities seems to be the height of dereliction. This story is quite interesting and kept my attention throughout. I only wish the producers could have gotten some interviews from the culprits who ended up paying in the end. It is deeply disturbing that something like this could actually happen. Don't people know that God sees all and has the power to cast them into hell? Good grief!!! Wake up folks.
