Onslow County to reimburse sheriff attorney fees

Onslow County Commission agrees to pay 27000 to Sheriff Ed Brown for legal costs incurred defending himself against criminal charges in 2001. Chairman Delma Collins says repayment is proper since incidents occurred while Brown was on duty and the county insurance declined coverage. Brown says he paid 17000 to 18000 so far after taking a second mortgage. Prosecutors charged him with violating a medical examiner's jurisdiction and indecent handling of a dead body tied to a murder case in 2000.
