FWIW, Netflix has a new doc out on Rita Crundwell and Dixon. It’s well-done, but it just reinforces questions on how a small town could get so brazenly ripped off so bigly for so long and nobody noticed.
Once you see her horse spread outside Dixon, it’ll blow your mind that red lights weren’t flashing. She made $80K a year, max, and lived like a multi-millionaire — which she was, on the town dime.
The scam itself couldn’t have been simpler or more obvious, to boot. Plenty should have caught it, early.
