DALLAS CO. INVESTIGATION TO INCLUDE AUDIT
An investigation into money missing from the Dallas County Sheriff's
Office will include an audit of about $2 million seized in drug cases
and traffic stops over the past five years, a state agent in charge
of the investigation said today.
John Quinn of the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation said state
auditors will look at so-called "disclaimer" money taken from people
who give up their right to it, as well as cash from criminals that
has been awarded by a judge.
An undetermined amount of money is missing from more than $780,000
that sheriff's officials found hidden in a car during a March 15
traffic stop on Interstate Highway 80 near the DeSoto.
