Report On Flint City Records Study Released
A certified public accountant report covering April 1, 1959, to May 16, 1963, criticizing Flint City's records was released by Circuit Judge Newton Powell. The study followed an attempt by Daily reporters to inspect books, and notes carelessness and inadequacies in the town's accounting. Police Chief Odis Simpson Jr was fired, rehired, then fired again amid legal questions over firing while out of state, with council overruling. The Holle report also cites conflicts with authorized salary payments from 1961.
