Frederick County Sheriff Faces Grjur Probes and Political Pressure
A special grand jury and the Frederick County Board of Supervisors scrutinize the Sheriff’s Department amid indictable suspicions. Potential charges target deputies Charles Brill and E W Fadely for theft and sale of confiscated weapons, a former deputy William O Johnson for withholding evidence, and possible misappropriation by Rose Mauck. The reports cite sloppy administration and call for independent consultants and clearer instructions. Sheriff Mauck defends the process, pledges to repay $100 for the pistol, and decries political mudslinging while promising improvements.
