Tri-State Business- Three more fired by Mid-Missouri Bank

Three more Mid-Missouri Bank employees have been fired as an investigation into wrongdoing at the bank, according to an article by Joplin Tri-State Business reporter Chris Roberts.
Those fired, according to the article, were Chris Couch, Frank McReynolds, and Tim Langston.
The firings follow the earlier dismissals of Joplin branch bank president Scott Rosenthal and loan officer Kayla Muskrat. Couch and McReynolds had been suspended since Rosenthal and Ms. Muskrat were fired:

(Mid-Missouri CEO P. Lee) Gilbert visited the Joplin bank on Tuesday to meet with Thane Kifer, Mid-Missouri’s vice president and attorney, to discuss the status of the investigation that involves the Missouri Division of Finance, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the FBI and the bank’s bonding company. Gilbert said he couldn't reveal the nature of the investigation or the reason for firing the five bank employees.

Can you say kickbacks? Straw loans in exchange for money - nice work guys.

I hear there are millions of $$$
in fraudulent loans and some Joplin realtors are involved too. Should be interesting to see the outcome of all of this. I viewed Scott as arrogant and judgemental. He's getting exactly what he deserves. So many people are happy to see the muther fall.
