A Yuma County official is now under investigation over concerns involving public money. County supervisors voted to hire an outside attorney to look into allegations that Treasurer David Alexandre may have misused public funds. The decision came during a board meeting, where officials said the county has a responsibility to act when concerns are raised. So far, specific details about the allegations have not been made public. Officials say the review will be handled by an outside attorney from a Phoenix law firm, with the goal of ensuring a fair and independent investigation. Alexandre, who was elected in 2024, has denied any wrongdoing and is seeking his own legal representation. The move also comes amid growing scrutiny around how public funds are handled across Arizona. What do you think about bringing in an outside investigator for cases like this?
