Serious charges are made during an Osage County, Oklahoma, forum.
During this week's Republican Forum, Osage County Clerk Robin Slack made some serious allegations against both former and current county commissioners. Slack said that she believes that not all county purchases are going through her office and that the $10 million courthouse annex is an example.
Slack says that Everett Piper, who stepped down as County Commissioner for District One in March, gave a presentation stating that the county would see a loss of nearly one million dollars. The Board converted the bond from an 18-month bond to a 30-year bond.
Everett Piper calls Slack's accusations untrue. Piper says Slack is intentionally misrepresenting the situation.Piper added that every step of the requisitioning process has been reviewed and approved by legal counsel.
Osage County District Attorney Mike Fisher also called Slack's comments were inaccurate.
