Holmes seeks embezzlement charges in tax office case
Grand jury indictments against at least three persons will be sought for embezzlement of state motor vehicle registration fees from Ector County Tax Assessor-Collector's Office. District Attorney Mike Holmes said the probe found multiple people involved, mostly within the tax office. The seven month investigation by the Rangers and comptroller’s office is nearly complete, with second degree felony theft charges likely if indictments proceed. The audit’s final results remain pending, and authorities plan to present evidence to a grand jury by month's end.
