WAUSHARA COUNTY (NBC 26) — Nearly 200 Waushara County residents came to a county board meeting to express distrust in the sheriff’s office after documents highlighting sexual harassment allegations and misuse of funds came to light this fall.

Waushara County Sheriff’s Office public records on internal investigations detail complaints of sexual harassment against deputies.

The Waushara County Board directed the Sheriff to repay more than $20,000.

The County Board said they will be investigating the County 911 Dispatch Center after a delayed response to an active shooter threat in early October.

At the Tuesday night meeting, County Board chair, John Jarvis, says nearly 200 people attended.

Only a few spoke during public comment, and one person spoke in support of the Sheriff’s Office.
