A grand jury has indicted all of Warren Countys top government officials on charges of misfeasance as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into allegations of embezzlement and money laundering inside the local economic development authority, Virginia State Police announced Tuesday.
Among the 14 people charged were County Executive Douglas Stanley and all five members of the countys Board of Supervisors: Chairman Daniel Murray, R-North River; Tony Carter, R-Happy Creek; Tom Sayre, R-Shenandoah; Archie Fox, R-Fork; and Linda Glavis, R-South River. Former Warren schools Superintendent Luke Drescher and former County Attorney Daniel Whitten also were charged.
An official at the office of the Warren commonwealths attorney, which is handling the criminal investigation, declined to comment.
Stanley, Warrens county executive, declined to comment, as did Whitten, the former county attorney. Several others did not immediately return messages for comment.
