Saline County Prosecutor Ken Casady has concluded there’s nothing to prosecute in the recent discovery, subject of a fair amount of press coverage, that the Saline Memorial Hospital got a sweetheart deal on sewer rates.
His letter to the Benton city attorney is on the jump. Everybody knew about it. The rate followed a practice once authorized by law (charging based on water that reaches the sewer, not water consumption). Nobody willfully violated any laws. Case closed.
