The Frederick County Ethics Commission unanimously found that County Commissioner President David Gray did not violate the ethics ordinance by releasing documents marked confidential in October. The ruling notes the disclosure did not show private gain, and Gray defended his actions as serving citizens. The inquiry, led by Mayor Jim Grimes, was criticized by Gray as a political dirty trick before the November election.
