A comprehensive review ordered by New York City Mayor Eric Adams has uncovered that Exodus Transitional Community, the nonprofit responsible for managing security at hotels housing released inmates during the pandemic, secretly redirected millions of taxpayer dollars to a subcontractor with close ties to the group. The investigation, initially conducted by THE CITY in 2022, revealed that the nonprofit's subcontractor arrangement went unreported to the NYC Comptroller for over a year. Despite these findings, Exodus Transitional Community, which involves a music production studio, continues to receive city contracts without facing consequences.

Millions of taxpayer dollars are unaccounted for after a guy who runs the music production studio for a prison reentry group inserted himself as middleman for payments to security firms. Yet @etcnyorg is still getting city contracts, without consequences. https://t.co/Ag5QkUliRc
