The former police chief of the Chadbourn Police Department was arrested Monday by the State Bureau of Investigation on 73 charges that include embezzlement, tampering with evidence and drug violations.

William Anthony Spivey, 35, was arrested about 3:45 p.m. in Fair Bluff by SBI agents with the Coastal District Office, according to a news release.

The SBI said it began looking into possible misconduct at the request of District Attorney Jon David on March 2.

1. I bet there is a lot of this that goes around.

Former police chiefs probably are too accustom to gaming the system. Would not surprise me if they brought this abusive nature into the communities they live in.

3. He was appointed

I'd like to check into who appointed him and whether he was getting a cut of whatever Spivey got.
