They were lax in applying standards. In Bobby Roth's case, he didn't make note of changes to the text even though it is standard to do so. In Chopra, Sharma and Triguna's case, they didn't fill out the financial disclosure form because they thought they didn't need to. In both cases, slopiness in dotting i's and crossing t's came back to haunt them. When you are dealing with potentially hosite situation, you gotta be twice as careful as usual. Of course, Bobby Roth had no idea that he was dealing with potentially hostile people, but should have observed theforms "just because."
