The Alabama Ethics Commission has ruled on complaints filed against Colbert County Schools administrative assistant Michelle B. Campbell Ragan. The 27 year employee has been deemed guilty of one ethics violation and her case forwarded to the Colbert County District Attorney.
According to an inside source who didn't wish to be named, Ragan purchased a company that did business with the school system, then had access to bids for services in which her company participated.
Ragan is currently on leave from Supt. Chris Hand's office. She is also being investigated by the system's attorney, and more charges could be forthcoming. The ethics commission is expected to post a written statement concerning its unanimous findings in the next few days.
