Resident urges board to investigate past law-enforcement conduct and calls for accountability
Summary
During public comment a Lincoln County resident, Anthony Huss, urged the Board of Commissioners to use its influence to press for investigations into alleged past misconduct by local law-enforcement officials and the district attorney's office, offering evidence he said local and state agencies had reviewed.
Anthony Huss addressed the board during the public-comment period and urged the commissioners to investigate alleged misconduct by local law-enforcement officers and to pressure the district attorney’s office to "fulfill their oath." Huss offered to provide evidence he said the SBI and his attorney had reviewed and described a long-running dispute he said included tampering with records and other criminal conduct. "I'm calling on you to act, to investigate, and to pressure the DA's office to fulfill their oath," Huss said.
Huss referenced previous events including allegations from 2018 and said he had met with the SBI and his attorney; he asked the board to act independently and review the evidence he offered to provide to the clerk. No formal board action or response is recorded in the transcript beyond the chairman thanking him and staff accepting his contact information for follow-up.
Separately, other public commenters included Colonel Edward Haines, who described Skybelle Incorporated’s foundation proposal to support firefighter and EMT training and volunteer retention, and Gunny Hall, who made civic and constitutional remarks.
