Are public officials in Virginia engaging in more petty crimes and misdemeanors these days? Maybe it’s just coincidence that so much misbehavior is being reported on the same day.

Warren County embezzlement. From the Northern Virginia Daily: former Warren County supervisor Ronald L. Llewellyn and his wife Corinne have been arrested and charged with multiple counts of embezzlement that took place between 2011 and 2018. Ronald Llewellyn was indicted on 44 counts of embezzlement, 10 of conducting an unlawful financial transaction and one of forging a document. His wife was indicted with 22 counts of embezzlement and seven of unlawful transactions. Details were not available on what government or business entity was victimized.

Stalking and general creepiness. Rodney Lamont Hubbard, the 52-year-old owner of a car repair business and Republican candidate for Lynchburg City Council, has been charged with stalking and “unlawful filming” of another, reports Cardinal News. In other run-ins with the law, Hubbard is charged with misdemeanor assault and battery and misdemeanor carry of a concealed weapon. His record includes convictions for drug possession and distribution, destruction of property, possessing a gun as a nonviolent felon and unlawfully obtaining documents from the DMV.

I guess Patrick County won’t be getting that hospital. From Cardinal News….

Two years ago Sameer Suhail of Chicago pledged to reopen a community hospital in Patrick County. Now he and two co-defendants are under indictment on federal charges of scheming to embezzle more than $15 million from a Chicago hospital between 2018 and 2022. The indictment alleges that the defendants created “fictitious documents, including fictitious invoices, payment requests, delivery receipts and other documents, which contained false information about goods and services.”

Suhail founded Foresight Health in February 2022 and purchased a 10-acre property in the county seat of Stuart with the aim of reopening a healthcare facility there. But relations with community leaders deteriorated and the project never materialized.
