As reported earlier the Town of Jonesboro was found to be “at risk” for fraud according to an audit released by the Louisiana Legislative Auditor. The CPA firm, Bosch & Statham, conducted the audit for the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2019. Auditors found material weaknesses dating back to 2015 that had not been rectified.
The audit report covers six months of former Mayor James Bradford’s administration and six months of current Mayor Leslie Thompson’s administration, which prevented the auditor from issuing an official opinion on the state of the town’s finances leading to the determination.
