Ex-sheriff embezzler still due full retirement pay
This just goes to show you how messed up Oregon's government is, and it's no wonder we're broke. Former Deschutes County sheriff Greg Brown was convicted a few months ago and will serve a 33-month federal prison term for embezzlement. He stole about $250,000 from the people of Central Oregon. And he's still eligible for public employee retirement benefits (or PERS for you folks within Oregon).
