Missing Whitley County Money Found

{Corbin, Kentucky}...Whitley County Fiscal Court members got some good news during their monthly meeting this past week. Whitley County Attorney Don Moses informed the fiscal court that, at Judge-Executive Pat White Jr.'s urging, he looking into accounts at local banks and discovered 13 accounts containing a total of about $114,000 from the prior administration of former Whitley County Sheriff Lawrence Hodge. Fiscal Court members authorized Moses to file "friendly" litigation in order to have the money turned over to the fiscal court. It will then be County Treasurer Jeff Gray's job to figure out where it should be distributed.
