Audit finds Grady County overpaid elected officials by $727,343
CHICKASHA — Current and former Grady County elected officials were overpaid by more than $727,000 over a 10-year period, according to a special state investigative audit released Monday.
"I'm just sick over it," said Grady County Treasurer Robin Burton, one of three current and former county officials who each reportedly have received $90,959 in overpayments since 2008.

"I hate it not only for myself, but for everybody else," Burton said. "Nobody knew that we were getting overpaid."
State Auditor Gary Jones said the excessive salary payments occurred because Grady County commissioners repeatedly failed to comply with a state law that requires them to set salaries within a maximum salary limit.

Who in the devil was minding the store when they granted themselves an 18% salary increase? I hope that they all get to pay back every dime they took!
