There's Something Rotten in the Whittlesly Case
County taxpayers question the delay in prosecuting ex County Treasurer Charles P Whittlely and deputy P P Padden over a $34 317 shortage. Special Judge Wilmon Tucker led a brief trial last fall before the case stalled despite indictments for larceny by embezzlement. County officials vow to push the civil suit or hire counsel, noting political influence as a reason for the drag.
