Another name has been added to a fraud case In Paintsville

Eulas Crace is accused of bribing Mayor Bob Porter with funds disguised as personal loans to Porter’s wife. Allegedly, in exchange for money Porter would steer the city’s towing needs to Crace’s business, and was given public contracts. In a separate allegation, Porter gave Crace these contracts without bidding them out. The indictment also claims that Porter and Crace created false invoices to steal over 5,000 dollars from the city. These charges are being added to ones Porter and former Utilities manager Larry Herald are already facing.
