FBI investigating Michael Fox?
Officials at the Butler County Recorder’s Office say an FBI agent stopped by collecting information on Children Services Director Michael Fox.
Late last week, the agent reportedly requested an armful of copies of deeds and records pertaining to Fox’s home at 6109 Creekside Way in Hamilton. The issue became the talk of the office when the agent refused to pay for certified copies (that problem was fixed).
This comes in the midst of an ongoing investigation into the county’s dealings with Dynus Corp. The investigation has already brought down County Auditor Kay Rogers (read about that here).
The FBI is mum on whether Fox is implicated in the probe. “I can’t confirm or deny any type of investigation on that individual,” said Spokesman Mike Brooks.
As a county commissioner until last, Fox was a driving force behind the fiber optics project before it fell through when the company allegedly took out a multi-million dollar loan in the county’s name without the county’s approval.
Fox said his conscience is clean on the issue: “They (the FBI) said their investigation of Dynus is ongoing and I would suspect they would do a thorough job of investigating everybody that was in office at that time,” he said.
