Grand Jury Indicts Three and Offers Three Recommendations

The Fayette County Grand Jury for the spring term of the 155th District Court presented three recommendations into open court in its report to District Judge Paul Huser. First, it proposed the county auction of outdated furniture that was no longer functional or occupying needed storage space. Second, the grand jury asked that an audit of county records be made for the first time in many years because the county had recently undergone substantial changes in administration. Third, the poor condition of county roads, especially in Precinct 3, needed to be addressed and brought up to standard. The grand jury also returned three felony indictments.
