Wait a minute;

Last year, the District school system's personnel office reduced Durham's pay from $115,226 to $113,751 after learning that she did not hold a doctorate, but wrote to Durham that "this error is not of your doing.
Seems to me it's not her fault, someone else, like a clerk or something, screwed up. I think it's reasonable that she not notice a 1.3% pay error after deductions and stuff. The pay level is evidently based on education level and automatic. Doesn't seem to be a fraud unless they screwed up her records and she noticed it but rather than correcting it, took advantage to get a better job.
either way, I wouldn't blow up DC for that. There are plenty of other reasons to, though.
