This incident is an unfortunate warning to all who are directors of California non-profits. First - directors are responsible for the operations and the check on finances of the organizations they take formal responsibility for. Second, under California non-profit law*, directors are able to have access to all accounting books of the corporation. This means, the books, and all the finances, are not protected from individual director scrutiny. Any single director, thinking something 'fishy', is allowed to check the books without a majority vote of other directors!
To my way of thinking, there are also some directors of this non-profit, who should offer their resignations, so they may be replaced by better directors.
*(California Corporations Code, Title 1, div 2, part 2, chapter 13 = SECTION 6334)
