There have also been massive cover-ups of gold gone missing with a kangaroo court investigation into the missing gold.
The cover-up process was a brilliantly managed process whereby 4 issues were investigated in isolation by "experts" mandated to perform a single function, each in isolation.
The outcome of each of these items exonerated anyone from wrong doing but it did include such laughable explanations as the physical count inventory failed to count gold lost through normal processing and which may have been absorbed into the building etc.
Remember when a physical count is performed there is no extrapolations ... it is a real person doing a real count of what is there ... adjusting a physical count after the fact is fraud. If that gold is lost in the process the initial book value should record that. Of course its hould never be included in the books if those involved in the process understand the normal shrinkage process.
Nothing like solving red herrings to give the sheople comfort.
