Thousands of dollars returned to sheriff's office
CAMDEN COUNTY, GA. -- After 70 days of being reinstated in the Federal Seized Asset Program, the Camden County Sheriff's Office has received more than $527,000 from the U.S. Department of Justice.
The sheriff's office was audited 18 months ago. The Department of Justice says they discovered that ex-sheriff Bill Smith misspent approximately $662,000.
The Camden County Sheriff's Office was banned from the Federal Seized Asset Program. The sheriff's office was just reinstated to the program in November.
