JOURDANTON, Texas – Atascosa County Precinct 4 Commissioner Kennard “Bubba” Riley was arrested on Monday after an investigation by the Texas Rangers, according to the sheriff’s office.
Riley was charged with violation of motor fuel tax regulation, a second-degree felony, as well as misdemeanor charges of theft and abuse of official capacity, the sheriff’s office confirmed with TheTXLoop.
Riley bonded out of the Atascosa County jail on Monday shortly after being booked, the sheriff’s office said.
A woman who identified herself as Jackie, a deputy clerk with the Atascosa County District Attorney’s Office, refused to release copies of the indictment to TheTXLoop on Tuesday afternoon. The documents became a public record when Riley was released from jail.
