Abstract

Forensic reviewers from global auditing firms and local law firms are in the business of examining suspicions of misconduct and crime for their clients. Reports written by forensic reviewers and fraud examiners for their clients after an investigation are interesting for white-collar crime research as described in this chapter. Reports of investigations have reconstructed past events and sequences of events that can open up for insights into potential financial motives, potential organizational opportunities, and potential personal willingness for deviant behavior, which are the three corners in the convenience triangle. Reports of investigations can illustrate the quality of private policing when there is a suspicion of misconduct and crime. This chapter is drawing on a forensic review conducted by global auditing firm KPMG for the Town of Pelham in Canada to investigate suspicions of fraud in the East Fonthill Development Project.
