Broxton Mayor Bobby Reynolds, daughter indicted Over Missing Funds

A Coffee County grand jury has indicted Broxton Mayor Bobby Reynolds and his daughter, the former city clerk, in the disappearance of about $575,000 in city funds.

The 69-year-old Reynolds is charged with violating his oath of office and malfeasance of office.

His 48-year-old daughter, Tracy Lott, is charged with theft by taking and making false statements.

The City Commission fired Lott from her city clerk job last year amid an audit of city finances.

District Attoey Rick Currie says the indictments stem from an investigation launched after an audit showed more than $500,000 missing.

Reynolds and Lott did not retu messages seeking comment left at their homes.
