On September 10, federal investigators announced that 13 former and current Interior Department employees in the Denver and Washington offices allegedly accepted golf and ski outings, received sexual favors and partied with employees from energy companies, according to CNNMoney.
Three reports released by the Interior Department's inspector general reported that the officials in charge of billions of dollars in oil royalties accepted bribes – including fixing contracts, working as private oil consultants on the side, accepting golf and ski trips and dinners, and having sexual relationships – in exchange for better business deals. The investigation was launched in 2006 after an employee in the Denver office called in to report the ethical issues.
