During the 2006 Budget process, former Harrisburg Mayor Steve Reed speaks to the press about the City's budget hole at that time. Talking of Harrisburg's history of falsified figures, lies and corruption, Reed asserts he's misleading no one in his presentation of the City's financial reports.

"You tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth," or you don't get the awards, he says.

Recently, it was discovered that for years under the Reed Administration, not only were suburban municipal water and sewer users overcharged millions of dollars of "administrative fees," but also from 2006-2010, $34 million was illegitimately transferred from the Sewer Trust Fund into the City's General Fund to help balance the budget each year.--Tara Leo Auchey
