Safari, limo, 5-star resorts: CA insurance boss' taxpayer-funded travel, security raise questions

[quaint]

ABC7

For more than nine months, we've requested information about 48 of Commissioner Lara's trips. However, the department has only identified a direct business purpose for seven of those trips, three of which included vague descriptions. Due to incomplete records, it's unclear how many of these trips were taxpayer-funded. Receipts show expenses for at least 13 pricey trips were on taxpayers' dime.

Furthermore, records for travel expenses to at least a dozen international destinations remain missing.

Newly-obtained records now reveal the cost of his security detail for several of his controversial trips. State expenses show trips that listed no insurance-related meetings were five times m-star resort stays... and, as we found out, a safari, limo service, chauffeurs... the list goes on.
