The Guernsey County Prosecutors Office and Cambridge Police Department have released a joint statement on the charges pressed on Shon Gress.
Detective David Ryan led the multi-month investigation, sifting through a massive volume of financial records, receipts, digital purchasing histories, and electronic documentation. Investigators also executed a search warrant as part of efforts to trace the organization's funds.
"The citizens of Guernsey County deserve to know that we made every effort to identify and account for the funds involved, down to the penny," Detective Ryan said, thanking center employees and police department personnel for assisting with the extensive audit and search warrant ex*****on.
Cambridge Police Chief Dave Peoples commended Detective Ryan’s thoroughness and thanked the senior center’s board for their full cooperation, which officials noted significantly accelerated the financial review.
"Without their good work, Detective Ryan would still be waiting for subpoenas to be fulfilled from several financial institutions, local businesses, and online retailers," said Guernsey County Prosecuting Attorney Lindsey K. Donehue-Angler. "Because of the assistance of these particular people, our community won’t have to wait much longer for accountability."
