An investigation targeting FEMA chief Brock Long has been referred to federal prosecutors to determine whether criminal charges should be pursued, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Long and two other federal employees “may have broken as many as six laws as they commuted frequently between Washington and Mr. Long’s home in Hickory, NC, at taxpayers’ expense.”

“FEMA administrator Brock Long is the target of an ongoing Department of Homeland Security inspector general investigation into whether he misused government vehicles during his commutes to North Carolina from Washington,” Politico reports.

“The actions by Long, the U.S. government’s lead disaster official as the country braces for Hurricane Florence, have been called into question by the inspector general over whether taxpayers have inappropriately footed the bill for his travel.”
