FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- An emergency audit by state investigators uncovered possible embezzlement, voter fraud, and more trouble at a Valley school district.

They found questionable expenses like pest control services for a former superintendent's personal home, payments for meals and community events unrelated to school business and unsubstantiated payments for travel.
It found 90 percent of the district's transactions didn't have proper documentation. Also, the district may have had an issue with nepotism - giving business and jobs to family members.
