SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford fired three top administrators last week after an investigation found they allegedly faked records and, in one case, engaged in “workplace harassment,” according to documents obtained Monday by The Associated Press.
The move is the latest upheaval in Rutherford’s office since his Republican primary campaign for governor fizzled last winter after an ex-employee filed a federal lawsuit against him for sexual harassment and political coercion. Rutherford has repeatedly denied those allegations.
