Buchanan County Recovers Scam Funds | Roanoke News

Buchanan County’s school district is getting a major financial reprieve after recovering over $3.2 million stolen in a construction scam — with another $66,900 recently added to the haul. Originally, nearly $4.6 million was lost when a payment meant for the new Southern Gap High School was rerouted. The treasurer, Lonnie Keith Boyd, is keeping details tight due to an ongoing FBI investigation, and the recovered funds weren’t through insurance. Despite the setback, the much-anticipated high school — part of a major consolidation effort — is still set to open this month.
