Former Sardis Fire Secretary/Treasurer Pleads Guilty to Embezzlement
William Clark, former secretary and treasurer of the Sardis Fire Department in Mississippi, pleaded guilty to embezzlement of public funds after submitting inflated emergency response numbers to receive unauthorized payments. State Auditor Shad White emphasized the commitment to preventing misuse of tax dollars and highlighted that these efforts have led to recovering more money in the past seven years than in any previous period in the Auditor’s office history. Clark was prosecuted by the Panola County Circuit Court and sentenced to ten years of post-release supervision, along with fines totaling $1,100 and restitution of $7,525. The case underscores ongoing vigilance by the state auditor to hold public officials accountable for financial misconduct. Citizens are encouraged to report suspected fraud to the State Auditor’s Office. This conviction reflects a broader effort to safeguard public resources in Mississippi.
