Polk probe targets state auditor over $200 payment case
Polk County Attorney Dan Johnston will investigate whether State Auditor Lloyd Smith failed to report evidence to the attorney general regarding a $200 cash payment alleged to have been made to Comptroller Marvin Selden by Planning Research Corp. The probe follows a civil suit by Attorney General Richard Turner claiming the payment aimed to influence TRADIS contract approval. Selden says it was reimbursement for TRADIS orientation dinners in 1972.
