UC Berkeley administrator hiked pay for employee she was seeing
And, of course, the University plays it down. No firing, no return of the money, no referral for criminal prosecution. As much omerta as possible under the circumstances.

Update:

After exposure in the press, the University fired Diane Leite, the administrator in question.  No criminal referral has been made, and Ms. Leite will keep her pension.   Jonathan Caniezo, the employee who was the recipient of taxpayer money via her largesse, will keep his job, though perhaps be demoted.
