California High Speed Rail bigwigs reportedly billed taxpayers for unexplained late-night trips to and from CEO Ian Choudri’s Folsom home, along with rides to local bars and restaurants — as reps face tough questions about nearly $600,000 in blown expenses revealed in a recent audit. Two rail consultants, Denver-based Nossaman LLP attorney Brent Butzin and KPMG director Thierry Prate, were reimbursed for Lyft rides at odd hours last September, even after 1 a. m in the morning in one instance, according to receipts obtained by CBS Sacramento.
