Special Review: Board of Prison Terms Interpretation Svs Procedures
This report presents the results of a special review conducted by the Office of the Inspector General of the procedures used by the Board of Prison Terms to govern services provided by foreign language interpreters. The review was prompted by an investigation by the Office of the Inspector General of a foreign language interpreter who was found to have submitted 261 false claims to the Board of Prison Terms over a period of nearly three years for services provided at parole revocation hearings. The investigation determined that Board of Prison Terms failed to detect the fraud and paid the interpreter for false claims totaling $11,862.
