The Buncombe County Board of Commissioners after having received a copy of the indictments against Wanda Greene, Mandy Stone, and Jon Creighton, requested legal counsel to review any contracts that the County may have entered into with Joseph Wiseman, Jr., or any entities with whom he is or has been associated, and to advise the County Commissioners on what actions the County should take. Specifically, the Commissioners have requested legal counsel to review any contracts which may still be in existence to determine how to proceed and instructed counsel to take any appropriate steps against Mr. Wiseman and his companies as well as others named in the indictment to recover any monies that were expended as a part of the fraudulent scheme set forth in the indictment.
