Description

A state audit has found that Gov. Pat Quinns administration left behind tractors, a forklift, computers, and confidential patient and employee records when it closed three Department of Human Services facilities. The report by Auditor General William Holland released Thursday says officials failed to follow proper inventory and shut-down procedures when it closed centers in Jacksonville, Rockford and Tinley Park in 2012.
