FDLE is investigating more complaints against the Liberty County Sheriff.
Nick Finch was arrested for misconduct and suspended from office Tuesday.
Wednesday, Commissioner Gerald Bailey said FDLE's investigation is ongoing, but he would not specity the number or nature of the additional complaints.
"Did you receive any additional complaints once you started investigating this?"
"Yes," Bailey said.
"You've received more?"
"Yes," Bailey said.
"Can you tell me how many more?"
"No," Bailey said.
Sheriff Finch was arrested Tuesday. Agents say Finch altered or removed official documents and ordered corrections officers at the Liberty County Jail to free a man who had been arrested on gun charges.
FDLE says the official misconduct charge is a third degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison if convicted.
"It could go from the fact that he could ... all the way from he'll lose his job and his law enforcement certificate to he could be reinstated," Bailey said.
The governor appointed FDLE agent Carl Causey as interim sheriff for the next 30 days.

How is this defending the Constitution? This is a certified DA who thinks he is above the law. Like all DA Barneys.
ReplyDeleteand those who voted for more gun laws said and those who wanted more gun laws said, and the politicians who passed feel good laws said you will not be harmed or become a criminal and it is legal to take away the 2nd amendment...
ReplyDeleteYet since passing, everyone with a gun is a criminal...
The Sheriff is right. It is in the Efficiency of Militia law H.R. 11654 of June 28, 1902. I forwarded it to here, or you may review it at http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Militia Act of 1903. According to the language this law may not be repealed.
ReplyDeleteHow dare he! Under Obama the constitution is only valid concerning the fith admendment (for corrupt government officials to conceal their crimes).
