Misconduct claims against Wayne County Sheriff candidates receive new scrutiny

As a panel prepares to select the next Wayne County Sheriff, past misconduct complaints filed against two leading candidates for the job are receiving new scrutiny.

14 candidates have applied for the post following the death of Sheriff Benny Napoleon in December after a battle with COVID-19.

A panel made up of three elected county officials will interview candidates beginning Thursday.

A vote is expected the next day.
