Not in this job (not that I've found out about, anyway), but in my old job it happened a lot as my boss was one to take credit for anything good even when she hadn't done the work, but would always try to avoid the blame for things that went wrong.

On one particularly memorable occasion, something hadn't been filed (with a patent office) and it caused a lot of trouble for the client.  She then blamed me to two partners, and then dictated a document to be filed with the unfiled one, explaining why it was late.  I had to type this document, and was horrified to see that she had blamed me for the mistake in a formal document that was to be filed with the patent office in question.  At no stage and in no way had I ever been at fault, she just couldn't admit to her superiors or the client that she had made such a bad mistake.
