Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes’ office is launching a criminal investigation into political donations made by a state contractor with ties to Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs, a Democrat who narrowly defeated GOP challenger Kari Lake in 2022.

According to a report from Arizona Central, a home operator that works with the Arizona Department of Child Safety has received a massive boost in state funding while pay increases to other providers have been denied. Over the course of the past year, the Arizona Department of Child Safety has approved what amounts to a 60 percent increase in the rate that Sunshine Residential Homes Inc. charges to care for a child for a day.

According to the report from Arizona Central, this amounts to “potentially millions of dollars more going to the company at taxpayers’ expense.” The company’s CEO, Simon Kottoor, was on Hobbs’ inaugural committee, while Hobbs praised the company while campaigning for governor.
