Yep, there was a bit on NPR of all places where this young finance grad with no experience beyond a small internship was “put in charge” of like $300 Million for Haiti. She had no idea what to do, so she just wrote checks for 10-30 million to whoever she happened upon / was recommended. However, it was clear from the context that she was just writing checks to whoever she was told to... because although she was only working with two other people... the folks giving her the job told her to work with them. Her “coworkers” then recommended various groups that absconded with the money. Since the girl went public, NPR spun it as a mismanagement issue, while it was clear that she wasn’t allowed to actually manage the funds and was grossly unqualified to do so even if she wanted.
A patsy, she was a patsy for a money laundering scheme. Probably too dumb to realize what was happening which is exactly why she was chosen for that job.
