Public TV station KCET's SoCal Connected program has helped reveal a major scandal at LA's Housing Authority involving former director Rudolf Montiel. He went from being celebrated as a reformer to disgrace as a spender of taxpayer money on personal luxuries including limousine rides and lavish means at pricey restaurants. Despite being fired for misplaced priorities and poor management, Montiel's contract required that he receive a severance deal worth almost $1.2 million. Laurel Erickson reports for SoCal Connected.
