The Sheriff Will Be Allowed to Use Public Funds During a Grand Jury Investigation

KWGS News

Tulsa County Commissioners won’t rescind a decision to allow public funds for the Sheriff to pay for attorneys during a grand jury investigation. Despite objections from a citizen’s group, Commissioners let the decision stand after hearing from Assistant D.A. Doug Wilson, who said under the law the payments were legal and allowed.

We the People Oklahoma filed a grand jury petition after unarmed suspect Eric Harris was shot and killed by 73-year-old reserve deputy Robert Bates.
