TUSD Governance Under Scrutiny: Why Were the Superintendent's $28,129 in State Tax Liens Not Formally Investigated?
An Audit Committee Member's Firsthand Account of Tax Lien Verification, Unanswered Questions, and the Failure to Establish the Facts
By John C. Blackshire, Jr.The Accountware Group (TAG) | October 2026
Executive Summary: The Bigger Issue Is Governance, Not Just Taxes
In 2024, while serving as a member of the Tucson Unified School District (TUSD) Audit Committee, I discovered information identifying two Arizona Department of Revenue state tax liens associated with Superintendent Dr. Gabriel A. Trujillo.
The liens had original recorded amounts totaling $28,129.57, with tax periods extending from 2015 through 2021.
Rather than relying exclusively on a commercial background report, I personally verified the public tax lien records with the Tucson branch office of the Arizona Department of Revenue.
I subsequently brought the matter to the attention of the TUSD Superintendent, TUSD's internal auditor, and the Governing Board's representative to the Audit Committee, Val Romero.
My efforts to obtain an explanation were unsuccessful.
The superintendent, Dr. Trujillo, did not respond to my November 14, 2024, written inquiry.
When I raised the matter at an Audit Committee meeting, Dr. Trujillo responded angrily, telling me, in substance, that his personal tax matters were none of my business and that he would not share personal tax information with the Audit Committee.
At a later meeting, the Audit Committee Chair relayed an explanation she attributed to Dr. Trujillo: that the tax issues related to returns from before he joined TUSD. This statement was a lie and partial truth. The public records confirm that one year was before Dr. Trujillo join the TUSD staff and the other five years were while he worked for TUSD.
However, I received no documentation supporting that explanation, no formal investigative findings, and no indication that the Governing Board had independently evaluated the matter.
The Governing Board representative I contacted also did not respond.
These events raise questions extending well beyond one superintendent's personal tax history.
What happens when an organization's chief executive refuses to answer questions about a documented matter that may warrant governance review? Who decides whether the issue deserves investigation? And what responsibility does a governing board have to ensure that the facts are established?
The fundamental issue is whether TUSD had an effective process for handling credible concerns involving its highest-ranking executive.
This article is based on my firsthand experiences, the correspondence I sent, the public tax lien information I reviewed, and the explanations communicated to me. My conclusions about TUSD's governance are my professional assessment of those events.
1. The Arizona State Tax Liens: What the Records Identified
The information I obtained in 2024 identified two Arizona Department of Revenue state tax liens associated with Gabriel A. Trujillo.
The records contained the following information:
Detail | First lien | Second lien |
Taxpayer | Gabriel A. Trujillo | Gabriel A. Trujillo |
Issuing agency | Arizona Department of Revenue | Arizona Department of Revenue |
Original lien amount | $21,959.92 | $6,169.65 |
Tax periods | 2015–2019 | 2016–2021 |
Lien date | April 26, 2022 | March 2, 2023 |
Recording date | May 24, 2022 | March 21, 2023 |
Recording reference | 2022-446464 | 2023-141053 |
Lien serial number | 10217050 | 10221644 |
Filing location | Maricopa County | Maricopa County |
Combined original lien amounts: $28,129.57.
The reported tax periods overlap. Accordingly, the records should not be interpreted as proving that separate tax deficiencies occurred in every year between 2015 and 2021.
A state tax lien is a legal claim associated with an assessed tax obligation. It may arise from unpaid reported taxes, an assessment adjustment, or other tax administration circumstances.
A lien does not, by itself, prove intentional tax evasion, fraud, or concealed income.
Nevertheless, the existence of multiple tax liens associated with the chief executive of a major public school district raised legitimate questions about the underlying circumstances and whether any governance obligations were implicated.
The larger lien was subsequently released
An Arizona Department of Revenue document dated February 22, 2024, identifies a full release of lien 10217050, originally recorded for $21,959.92.
That is an important fact.
The release demonstrates that the larger recorded lien had been released before I raised the matter with TUSD officials in September 2024.
The release document does not establish whether the original obligation was paid in full, adjusted, or resolved through another process.
The materials available to me do not establish whether the second lien, originally recorded for $6,169.65, has subsequently been released.
The historical filings and their ultimate disposition are separate questions. Both are relevant to an accurate account.
2. I Personally Verified the Public Records With the Arizona Department of Revenue
One of the most important aspects of this matter is that I did not simply accept information from a commercial background reporting service.
I personally verified the public tax lien records with the Tucson branch office of the Arizona Department of Revenue.
This step was important because I understood the consequences of bringing a potentially sensitive matter involving the superintendent to the attention of TUSD officials.
As an experienced auditor, I recognize the importance of obtaining sufficient, appropriate evidence before drawing conclusions.
A third-party background report may identify records that warrant investigation. It should not automatically be treated as conclusive evidence of every underlying fact.
My contact with the Arizona Department of Revenue provided an additional verification step concerning the public lien records.
That verification did not give me access to Dr. Trujillo's confidential tax returns or establish why the tax liabilities arose.
But it provided a factual basis for asking whether the district's governing authorities should evaluate the matter.
I was not asking anyone to presume wrongdoing.
I wanted TUSD to establish the facts.
3. September 25, 2024: Notification to TUSD Internal Auditor Martha Smith
On September 25, 2024, I shared the tax lien information with Martha Smith, who was serving as TUSD's internal auditor.
This was an appropriate initial escalation because internal audit serves an important role in evaluating governance, risk management, and internal controls.
I believed the information warranted consideration for several reasons.
First, the matter involved the superintendent, the district's highest-ranking executive.
Second, the liens involved state tax obligations spanning multiple tax periods.
Third, TUSD operates with substantial public funding and is expected to maintain appropriate standards of ethical conduct and accountability.
Fourth, the situation raised questions about whether the district had procedures for addressing potentially relevant financial or compliance matters involving senior executives.
Fifth, I already knew that Dr. Trujillo lived in Surprise, Arizona a two hour drive from the TUSD headquarters and he was renting an appartment in Tucson. Additionally, a number of members of the TUSD staff has informed me that Dr. Trujillo was only in the TUSD Headquarters a couple of days a week. In my mind was did he have another source of income in Surprise which he was not disclosing to the TUSD?
Sixth, I had observed Dr. Trujillo making false statements and other members of the Audit Committee had commented on his habit of not telling the Audit Committee important facts.
I did not expect internal audit to investigate the superintendent's confidential tax returns without proper authority.
I expected the information to be evaluated, the relevant governance responsibilities to be identified, and the concern to be escalated if appropriate.
What happened afterward?
To my knowledge, no formal investigation resulted from my communication.
I was not provided with an internal audit report, a documented risk assessment, or a formal determination explaining whether the matter fell within the Audit Committee's or Governing Board's responsibilities.
It is possible that discussions or reviews occurred without my knowledge.
However, I received no documented findings resolving the concerns.
From my perspective as an Audit Committee member, this was the first indication that the district lacked an effective, transparent process for handling a concern involving its superintendent.
4. November 14, 2024: My Formal Written Inquiry to Superintendent Trujillo
After receiving no substantive resolution, I contacted Superintendent Trujillo directly.
On November 14, 2024, I sent him a written email inquiry identifying the liens.
My request was straightforward:
"Can you please provide me with details on why you have these tax liens?"
I included the lien amounts, issuing agency, recording information, serial number, tax classification, and tax periods.
I also invited Dr. Trujillo to telephone me with any questions.
I signed the email correspondence in my capacity as a member of the Tucson Unified School District Audit Committee.
This was not a demand that the superintendent publicly disclose his personal income tax returns.
I was asking for an explanation of a publicly recorded matter.
There is an important difference between requesting confidential tax information and asking a senior executive to address whether a documented financial matter has implications under applicable governance requirements.
The superintendent could have responded by explaining that the liens had been resolved, identifying the appropriate person to address the matter confidentially, or requesting that the Governing Board determine whether any review was warranted.
Dr. Trujillo never responded to my November 14, 2024, email.
I received no written explanation or supporting documentation.
5. The Audit Committee Meeting: An Angry Response From the Superintendent
At the next Audit Committee meeting, I raised the tax lien matter privately directly with Dr. Trujillo.
His response, as I recall it, was angry and dismissive.
He stated, in substance, that his personal tax matters were none of my business as a member of the TUSD Audit Committee.
He also indicated that he would never share personal tax information with the Audit Committee.
This description reflects my firsthand recollection of the exchange. It is not presented as a verbatim quotation from an authenticated meeting transcript.
I found the response troubling.
The superintendent was entitled to maintain the confidentiality of his tax returns.
But the relevant governance question was not whether an individual Audit Committee member had unlimited access to his private financial information.
It was whether the Governing Board had an obligation to determine whether the public-record information presented any issue under the superintendent's contract, applicable ethics requirements, or district policies.
Those questions could have been evaluated without requiring public disclosure of confidential information.
The problem with allowing management to determine the limits of oversight
In an effective governance system, the chief executive does not unilaterally decide whether concerns about the chief executive deserve independent review.
The governing body establishes the oversight framework.
The Audit Committee exercises the authority delegated to it.
Legal counsel advises on privacy, employment, and disclosure requirements.
Management provides information necessary for authorized oversight.
The superintendent's objection could have been referred to the Governing Board for a determination of the appropriate scope of review.
Instead, I received no substantive resolution.
In my assessment, the exchange illustrated a broader governance risk: senior management's resistance to questioning can become a barrier to oversight when the governing body does not establish a clear escalation process.
6. The Explanation Later Provided Through the Audit Committee Chair
At a subsequent Audit Committee meeting, the then-current chair reported that Dr. Trujillo had told her the tax issues involved returns from before he joined TUSD.
That explanation was potentially relevant.
However, it required verification.
The tax periods identified in the lien records extended from 2015 through 2021. The liens themselves were recorded in 2022 and 2023.
A tax period, an assessment date, and a lien recording date are different events.
A lien recorded during a superintendent's employment can relate to a tax obligation from an earlier year.
Conversely, the fact that a tax obligation originated before employment does not automatically determine whether any subsequent disclosure obligation existed.
A proper review would have established the relevant employment dates, the nature of the tax assessments, their disposition, and any applicable contractual or policy requirements.
I was not given documentation supporting the explanation relayed by the chair.
Nor was I informed that the Governing Board had independently verified it.
A statement attributed to management is evidence of what management reportedly
said. It is not, without corroboration, proof that the explanation is complete or accurate.
That is a basic distinction in auditing.
7. November 14, 2024: Notification to Governing Board Representative Val Romero
On the same date that I wrote to Dr. Trujillo, I shared the tax lien information with Val Romero.
At the time, Mr. Romero served as the TUSD Governing Board's representative to the Audit Committee.
This communication was particularly important because the Governing Board had responsibility for oversight of the superintendent.
An Audit Committee member may identify a concern, but the committee's authority is limited by its charter and applicable law.
A matter involving the superintendent's employment obligations or possible ethical compliance could require action by the Governing Board.
I believed Mr. Romero was an appropriate person to receive the information and determine whether it should be brought before the Board.
Mr. Romero never responded to my communication.
I received no acknowledgment, request for additional documentation, or explanation of how the concern would be handled.
I cannot establish whether he discussed the information privately with other Board members.
But no formal investigative outcome or documented disposition was communicated to me.
That lack of response raised an important question about the effectiveness of the relationship between the Audit Committee and the Governing Board.
What purpose does a Board representative serve if concerns brought to that representative do not result in an observable process for evaluation and resolution?
8. The Five Governance Weaknesses Revealed by This Experience
In my professional assessment, the events exposed five significant weaknesses in TUSD's governance arrangements.
Weakness One: No Demonstrated Process for Evaluating Concerns About the Chief Executive
Organizations should establish procedures for handling allegations or concerns involving senior management.
The process should address who receives the information, who evaluates its credibility, who decides whether an investigation is warranted, and who reviews the findings.
That process becomes particularly important when the concern involves the chief executive.
I saw no evidence that TUSD applied such a process to the information I submitted.
Weakness Two: Management Resistance Was Not Effectively Addressed
When Dr. Trujillo rejected my inquiry, the matter should not simply have ended with his objection. He has the position that he does not work for the Governance of TUSD.
The proper question was whether the Audit Committee or Governing Board had authority to request additional information and whether the matter warranted review.
That question should have been answered through governance procedures and legal analysis, not by the superintendent's willingness or unwillingness to discuss it.
Weakness Three: The Reported Explanation Was Not Independently Corroborated
The chair's account of Dr. Trujillo's explanation could have provided a starting point for a review.
It should not have been treated as a substitute for one.
The Governing Board could have established whether the explanation was consistent with the official lien records and relevant employment dates.
I was not provided with evidence that this occurred.
Weakness Four: Escalation to the Governing Board Produced No Documented Outcome
I provided the information to the Board representative.
The absence of a response left me without assurance that the concern had reached the appropriate decision-makers.
An effective escalation mechanism should provide a documented disposition, even when the conclusion is that no further investigation is warranted.
Weakness Five: The District Did Not Demonstrate Consistent Accountability at the Executive Level
Public institutions depend on standards of conduct that apply throughout the organization.
A school district may expect employees to cooperate with legitimate compliance inquiries.
Senior executives should also be accountable through processes appropriate to their positions.
This does not mean every employee or executive must disclose private financial information upon request.
It means that credible concerns should be evaluated under consistent, established procedures rather than being dismissed because they involve senior leadership.
9. The GAO Green Book: What Effective Public-Sector Governance Requires
The Government Accountability Office's Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government, commonly known as the Green Book, provides a useful framework for understanding the governance issues.
The Green Book's requirements apply directly to federal agencies. Their applicability to TUSD depends on the relevant legal, grant, and policy requirements, but the framework offers important public-sector internal control principles.
Principle 1: Demonstrate Commitment to Integrity and Ethical Values
The control environment begins with the standards of conduct established by management and the oversight body.
Those standards should be supported by processes for evaluating concerns about compliance.
The existence of a personal tax lien does not automatically establish a violation of ethical standards.
However, the organization's willingness to examine credible concerns involving senior executives is an important indicator of how its control environment functions.
Principle 2: Exercise Oversight Responsibility
An oversight body must be sufficiently independent from management to exercise its responsibilities.
A central purpose of governance is to ensure that management is accountable to the governing body.
When a concern involves the chief executive, independent oversight becomes particularly important.
The superintendent should not be expected to investigate himself or determine unilaterally whether an issue concerning his own conduct warrants review.
Principle 3: Establish Structure, Responsibility, and Authority
Organizations should establish clear reporting lines and assign responsibility for internal control activities.
In this situation, the responsibilities of the internal auditor, Audit Committee, Board representative, superintendent, and Governing Board should have been clearly understood.
A defined escalation process could have prevented the concern from remaining unresolved.
Principle 14: Communicate Internally
Relevant information should reach the individuals responsible for evaluating it.
The information I provided was communicated to multiple individuals occupying governance and management positions.
The unresolved question is whether that information was appropriately evaluated, escalated, and documented.
Principle 16: Perform Monitoring Activities
Monitoring includes evaluating whether controls operate as intended and addressing deficiencies.
If an organization has procedures for handling concerns involving executives, it should be able to demonstrate that those procedures were followed.
If no such procedures exist, the organization should evaluate whether that absence represents a control-design deficiency.
10. Was This a Material Weakness in TUSD's Internal Controls?
The experience raises a serious question about entity-level internal controls.
However, it is important to use the term material weakness correctly.
A material weakness is not established merely because an executive refused to answer a question or because a governance concern was not visibly resolved.
A formal conclusion would require evaluation against the applicable internal control framework, the relevant reporting objectives, the likelihood and magnitude of potential consequences, and the controls actually in place.
The information available to me does not establish that the tax lien matter caused a material financial misstatement, misuse of district funds, or violation of a specific financial reporting requirement.
Nevertheless, the apparent absence of an effective escalation and resolution process may indicate a governance control deficiency.
A proper assessment should determine whether the district had adequate procedures for handling concerns involving the superintendent and whether those procedures operated effectively.
The issue is particularly significant because weaknesses at the entity level can affect multiple organizational activities.
These include financial reporting, procurement, regulatory compliance, conflicts of interest, fraud risk management, and management override of controls.
The question is not whether the tax liens themselves constituted a material weakness. It is whether TUSD's governance processes were designed and operating effectively enough to address credible concerns involving its chief executive.
11. The Three Lines Model: Who Should Have Acted?
The Institute of Internal Auditors' Three Lines Model helps clarify the responsibilities involved.
The Governing Board
The Governing Board has ultimate responsibility for governance oversight, including the superintendent's accountability under applicable employment and policy requirements.
It should establish a process for evaluating significant concerns involving senior leadership.
Management — First and Second Line Roles
Management owns and operates the district's internal control processes.
Appropriate management functions should support compliance, risk management, documentation, and reporting.
However, when a concern involves the superintendent personally, the district may need an independent reporting path that does not place the superintendent in control of the inquiry.
Internal Audit — Third Line
Internal audit provides independent and objective assurance and advice within its authorized mandate.
The internal auditor should not assume management's responsibilities or independently demand confidential personal records without authority.
But internal audit can help identify whether a concern should be escalated and whether the organization's governance procedures are functioning.
The Audit Committee
The Audit Committee supports the Governing Board through its delegated oversight responsibilities.
Its authority should be clearly defined in its charter.
If a matter falls outside the committee's authority, there should be an established process for referring it to the Governing Board.
In my experience, the concern I raised did not result in a documented resolution being communicated back through that governance structure.
12. What the Governing Board Should Have Done in 2024
A proportionate, evidence-based response could have been accomplished without presuming misconduct or requiring public disclosure of confidential tax returns.
The Governing Board should have considered the following steps:
Step 1: Establish the facts. Authenticate the official lien filings and determine their status, including the release of the larger lien.
Step 2: Determine the applicable requirements. Review the superintendent's employment agreement, Board policies, and any applicable ethics or disclosure provisions.
Step 3: Identify the appropriate review authority. Determine whether the matter belonged with the Governing Board, legal counsel, an independent investigator, or another authorized function.
Step 4: Obtain an explanation. Provide Dr. Trujillo an appropriate opportunity to explain the circumstances and submit relevant documentation through a confidential process.
Step 5: Assess whether any actual compliance issue existed. Distinguish personal financial matters with no organizational implications from circumstances that might affect contractual, ethical, or legal obligations.
Step 6: Document the conclusion. Record whether further action was warranted and why.
Step 7: Communicate the disposition appropriately. Provide authorized oversight participants with enough information to understand that the concern had been evaluated, while respecting privacy and confidentiality.
A documented conclusion that no violation occurred would have been a legitimate possible outcome.
What concerned me was the absence of an identifiable process leading to any conclusion.
13. Why This Matters to a Public School District Managing Hundreds of Millions of Dollars
TUSD operates at a scale that demands disciplined financial management and effective governance.
Its annual financial activity is substantial, and the district is responsible for managing public resources, complying with laws and regulations, and maintaining public confidence.
Large public organizations should not depend on informal relationships or management preferences to determine how significant concerns are handled.
They need established procedures.
Those procedures should function regardless of whether the concern involves a classroom employee, a department director, the chief financial officer, or the superintendent.
When a concern involves the organization's chief executive, the need for independent oversight becomes more important, not less.
The financial size of TUSD does not establish that a personal tax lien creates a district financial reporting risk.
But the district's size and responsibilities make an effective entity-level control environment essential.
A governance process that cannot demonstrate how it evaluates concerns involving senior management deserves examination.
14. The Importance of Professional Skepticism
Auditors are trained to exercise professional skepticism.
That does not mean assuming dishonesty.
It means maintaining a questioning mind and critically evaluating the evidence.
In this situation, professional skepticism required distinguishing several questions:
Did the tax liens exist?
Were the records associated with the correct individual?
What tax obligations did the liens represent?
Had those obligations been resolved?
Did the circumstances implicate any applicable TUSD policy or contractual requirement?
Was an independent review warranted?
I took steps to verify the public records before raising the matter.
I then sought an explanation through multiple channels.
The superintendent's reported response and the subsequent lack of a documented resolution left those governance questions unanswered from my perspective.
Professional skepticism should not end simply because the person being questioned occupies the highest management position in the organization.
At the same time, professional skepticism requires avoiding unsupported conclusions.
The records do not establish that Dr. Trujillo committed tax fraud or concealed income.
They establish historical liens, including one documented release, and provide a basis for determining whether further governance review was appropriate.
15. My Firsthand Account: What I Did and What I Observed
The sequence of events is important.
I identified the tax lien information and personally verified the public records with the Tucson branch office of the Arizona Department of Revenue.
On September 25, 2024, I shared the information with TUSD Internal Auditor Martha Smith.
On November 14, 2024, I sent Superintendent Trujillo a written request asking him to explain the tax liens.
That same day, I shared the information with Val Romero, the Governing Board's representative to the Audit Committee.
Dr. Trujillo did not respond to my written inquiry.
Mr. Romero did not respond to my communication.
At an Audit Committee meeting, Dr. Trujillo reacted angrily when I raised the matter and rejected the idea that he should discuss his personal tax information with the committee.
At a subsequent meeting, the chair relayed an explanation attributed to him, stating that the tax matters predated his TUSD employment.
I received no documentation supporting that explanation and no formal investigative report resolving the concern.
I cannot know whether confidential discussions occurred outside my presence.
But I can describe what I experienced: repeated efforts to bring a documented concern to appropriate officials without receiving a substantive, documented resolution.
That experience is the basis for my criticism of TUSD's governance processes.
16. What TUSD Should Do Now
The passage of time does not eliminate the value of reviewing whether governance procedures functioned appropriately.
TUSD's Governing Board should consider an independent assessment of how concerns involving senior executives are received, evaluated, escalated, and resolved.
Such a review should not be limited to Dr. Trujillo's tax liens.
It should examine the governance process itself.
The review should determine whether the Audit Committee charter clearly defines escalation responsibilities, whether the internal auditor has appropriate reporting access, whether Board representatives are expected to communicate significant concerns, and whether management-related matters can be evaluated independently of the executives involved.
The Board should also establish how the disposition of concerns is documented and communicated to authorized participants.
Where procedures are missing or ineffective, management should prepare a corrective
Management Action Plan for Board consideration.
Internal audit can subsequently evaluate whether the revised controls have been implemented and are operating effectively.
The objective should be to strengthen the district's governance framework, not to presume the outcome of any inquiry into an individual's personal affairs.
Conclusion: The Failure to Establish the Facts Is the Central Issue
In 2024, I brought information concerning two historical Arizona state tax liens associated with TUSD Superintendent Gabriel Trujillo to the attention of individuals serving internal audit, executive management, and Governing Board oversight functions.
I personally verified the public records with the Tucson branch office of the Arizona Department of Revenue.
I submitted a written request for an explanation.
I raised the issue at an Audit Committee meeting.
I notified the Governing Board representative.
Despite those efforts, I received no substantive explanation supported by documentation and no formal investigative findings.
The existence of the liens does not establish criminal wrongdoing or an ethical violation.
One of the liens had already been released before I raised the matter.
But those facts do not eliminate the governance question.
Why was a documented concern involving the district's chief executive not visibly addressed through an independent, accountable process?
An effective governing board does not need to investigate every allegation. It does need to ensure that credible concerns are evaluated objectively and that decisions are appropriately documented.
The superintendent is entitled to privacy, due process, and fair treatment.
The public is entitled to effective oversight of the officials entrusted with managing its school district.
Both principles can and should be honored.
The lesson from my experience is straightforward:
Governance is not demonstrated by the existence of a Governing Board, an Audit Committee, an internal auditor, or a written charter. Governance is demonstrated by what those individuals and institutions actually do when difficult questions arise.
TUSD's response to the tax lien concerns I raised in 2024 deserves examination for precisely that reason.
