In late 2021, multiple anonymous complaints were filed against Chief Deputy Nathan Campbell, alleging misuse of county vehicles and resources, operating county vehicles after consuming alcohol, inaccurate recording of work hours, and inappropriate contact with another employee’s wife. An external investigation found insufficient evidence to substantiate these claims, resulting in no disciplinary action. However, in January 2023, Campbell was placed on paid leave for violating department policies regarding intimidation and harassment, following an interaction with a subordinate employee that led to the employee’s resignation. Upon returning to duty in March 2023, he was reassigned to patrol duty for four months.
