(Laredo, Texas)-Webb County Statement On Investigation Letter On July 20, 2015 a letter was drafted from the office of County Judge Tano Tijerina requesting a formal Grand Jury investigation of alleged misappropriation of funds from restricted accounts by Webb County Auditor Leo Flores. The letter was sent to the Webb County District Attorney’s Office and the Webb County Attorney’s Office.
Please be advised that the letter was written by Judge Tano Tijerina acting as the presiding officer of Webb County Commissioners Court. The letter was formalizing a resolution and court action approved by unanimous vote at the June 22, 2015 Commissioners Court meeting.
Because of the sensitivity of the request and the on-going investigation, we will not comment on the letter but will let the judicial process take its course.
