MARIETTA, Georgia: Two former Washington County commissioners are being investigated for deleting or transferring a large number of files, some related to budget preparation, from their office computers before leaving office last year. On February 6, search warrants for the homes of the two commissioners were issued and nearly 7,000 documents were recovered.[1] The Washington County sheriff’s office recommended that charges, including theft in office, be filed against the commissioners, but the County Prosecutor has not yet taken any action against them.
