Douglas McFall – Jerome County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

In 2019, former Jerome County Sheriff Douglas McFall was sentenced to three years of probation for misuse of public funds. He pleaded guilty to using a Costco gift certificate intended for the Sheriff’s Office for personal use, amounting to $79. The court dismissed two felony grand theft charges as part of a plea agreement. McFall was ordered to pay restitution to Jerome County, fined $1,500, and required to complete 100 hours of community service. The incident brought embarrassment to the Sheriff’s Office and eroded public trust in the department.
