Burn after reading

I would very much like to pitch this Clerk of Court story to the Coen Brothers. It's probably not violent enough (yet?) But the farce element is certainly there. 

Days after our first story aired, Flores wrote a letter to the court’s judicial administrator saying he was “contracted to do a job, but before the work could be completed the officeholders transitioned." He also stated he would send a reimbursement check for nearly $3,200.

Badon said last week a person showed up at the courthouse with a check for $3,000 and $1,767 in cash -- one dollar more than the check he was written for the estimates for the clerk’s office.

“For me -- that’s a red flag, because why isn’t it all in the form of a check?,” Badon said. “I don’t know why they did it. I don’t know who the person was that did it. I know it was a Caucasian female who came into office and dropped it off. But nobody knows who that individual is.”

Badon said the court is holding the money in a safe and won’t deposit it since the report is now in the hands of law enforcement.

 And then they drop off an envelope full of cash to Austin Badon, the script reads.  That's good stuff.
