Former Lee County Sheriff’s Office Commander Arrested On Grand Theft Charges

Written by Lehigh Acres Gazette Staff

A former Lee County Sheriff’s Office Commander turned himself in on grand theft charges.

Commander Randy Crone is accused of duping the Sheriff’s office out of more than $60,000.  The Sheriff’s office says it stems from discrepancies on his time card.

Crone worked with the department for 15 years before his retirement in July.

Sheriff Mike Scott said in a statement he is disappointed by the former member’s actions and this does not reflect the hard work of his department.
