Sheriff Dierks Statement

 

Montgomery County Sheriff Robert Dierks gave an exclusive statement to KGGF's Kim Avery following the Mar. 11 County Commission meeting about the two charges currently against him.

 

Sheriff Dierks says he came forward with the story, first to the Montgomery County Chronicle, so citizens would hear from him first. Dierks has been accused of attempting to interfere with an investigation on an individual last year in 2018, including interference with a law enforcement officer and also witness intimidation. While special prosecutor Hiatt believes he has enough evidence to prove his guilt, Dierks' defense attorney Battotori plead not guilty at the first court summons last week, Mar. 6 in Independence. The Sheriff's office is not allowed to contact anyone not employed who is involved in the case. The pre-trial is set for June 12th. Stay tuned to KGGF with more updates.
