Prelim hearing set for former Marshall Co clerk
09/13/2019

(KMZA)--A November 5 preliminary hearing has been set for former Marshall County Clerk Sonya Stohs who is facing a felony charge of misuse of public funds.

That came during a status conference Tuesday in Marshall County District Court.

The 44-year-old Stohs was charged in July by the Kansas Attorney General’s Office following an investigation by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Secret Service.

The complaint alleges from May 2013 to April 2019, Stohs used funds belonging to the Marshall County to pay for various personal items, in excess of $100,000.

On April 4, KBI agents served search warrants at multiple locations in Marysville—including the Marshall County Clerk’s Office.

Stohs remains free on a $10,000 bond.
