"City [Kenosha] being investigated by Racine Sheriff's Department"

From the Kenosha News:

"The city of Kenosha is being investigated by outside law enforcement agencies, allegedly for tampering with emails and other public records.

"The Racine County Sheriff's Department has confirmed it has launched an investigation into city hall, but would not comment on the details of the investigation because it is still open. Sources familiar with the situation say the investigation centers on allegations that city officials called for the scrubbing of some public records.

"'We were referred a case by the sheriff's office from Kenosha County,' Racine County Lt. Steve Sikora said on Monday. 'Our investigation just started. We're two days into it.'

"According to sources, a whistle blower within city hall contacted local authorities about the possibility that records were being deleted.

"According to law enforcement sources, the complaint was bounced from the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department over to Racine.

"'We did send something up to the Racine County Sheriff,' said Kenosha County Sheriff's Sgt. Bill Beth. 'It's something involving city hall. We don't know more because it is an open investigation.'
