Exactly! Some managerial responsibility is in order. It's complete IDIOCY to not have a well-defined password management system in place & even more stupid to not have a series of contingencies in order. After all, THIS IS A FUCKING CIVIC INFRASTRUCTURE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT! For his part, Childs should not have even wanted to be the sole keeper of the passwords, although brilliant for job security, I guess. The fact that there was no oversight (i.e. no one smart enough to know what the fuck was going on) is just plain scary. Even scarier is that the guy has wasted part of his life in prison for it. seriously-wtf?!
