Cary Audit Probe Stalls Without Key Docs | Durham News

Cary’s criminal probe into alleged extravagant spending by town employees is stalled as the State Auditor’s Office delays handing over key documents—including interview transcripts and financial analyses—that could prove misconduct reached criminal levels. The audit, which exposed tens of thousands in questionable purchases like luxury meals and travel, singled out former town manager Sean Stegall. While the DA’s office and SBI launched their own investigation earlier this year, they’re now stuck without critical evidence from the auditor, who insists it’s still compiling accurate, complete materials with no set deadline. Meanwhile, Cary officials are cooperating and holding internal training sessions to overhaul financial oversight—showing accountability is alive even as legal proceedings grind to a halt.
