County counsel: deputy county manager Ray Long arrested on fraud‑related charges; county to monitor criminal process
Summary
County counsel told commissioners that deputy county manager Ray Long was arrested and charged on allegations including insurance fraud and theft; counsel said the county would monitor the criminal case and wait for the criminal process to play out before pursuing any potential restitution.
County counsel updated the board that law enforcement arrested deputy county manager Ray Long last Friday. Counsel said Long has been charged with insurance fraud and multiple theft‑related counts; counsel described the matter as involving alleged fraud and said the county would monitor the criminal proceedings.
Counsel reminded the board it had previously referred the personnel matter to law enforcement and said the board had agreed to allow the criminal process to move forward before taking separate civil or administrative action. He said he would keep the commissioners informed as the case progresses.
