public scrutiny

But things changed after the company came under intense public scrutiny after its chairman was prosecuted for market manipulation and bribery.

The allegations come as Hegseth faces public scrutiny into a history of misogynistic comments, including his suggestion that women be banned from combat roles.

The reporting requirements are meant to allow timely public scrutiny over these “behested payments,” which might be an attempt to curry favor with elected officials.

The issue never goes away but sometimes, such as this Friday and Saturday with the Breeders’ Cup at Del Mar, public scrutiny is at a very high level.

Kia Feyzjou, who represented Lennys Olguin, said some of the allegations may have been a “little exaggerated,” but winning a case with so much public scrutiny would have been difficult.
