Audit: Corrections Department waived fees for film crew

A state audit suggests mismanagement in the state Department of Corrections allowed a documentary crew to fail to pay fees to gain access to prisons. The Santa Fe New Mexican reported Thursday that a newly released audit by the State Auditor’s Office suggests Department of Corrections Deputy Secretary of Administrations Alex Sanchez waived $20,000 worth of fees a production company should have paid to the state in order for film a documentary series about corrections officers.
