Is this 'followed' here correct? I think it should be 'following'. 'Bartholomew-Strydom was also a journalist, and followed the money trail to find out who was getting the royalties from Sixto's song

Hi s8t2, Yes, it's correct. An easy way to figure out if it's correct is to reduce the sentence to its subject & predicate. Then you get: Bart was (etc) and followed (etc). Both predicates are in the simple past. It's the comma that's more troublesome ;) I hope this helps!
