Auditor questions Sutton police expenses

SUTTON — Citing everything from text-messaging charges to weapons purchases, the office of the Nebraska State Auditor of Public Accounts says it has problems with past expenditures of the Sutton Police Department.

According to an 18-page letter and audit report dated Oct. 31 and sent from State Auditor Mike Foley to Sutton City Council President Fred Figi, Foley’s representatives looked into the city’s books after receiving concerns from the public regarding police department expenditures.

The auditor’s office examined certain expenditures from Oct. 1, 2009, through Aug. 31, 2012, and flagged a number of items along the way.

The letter and report are posted online on the Auditor’s Office website, Auditors.nebraska.gov.
