FOX 13 Investigates: Utah County Attorney accused of urging staff to drop charges against his handyman

 

UTAH COUNTY, Utah — The FOX 13 Investigative team has spoken with more than a half-dozen past and present members of the Utah County Attorney’s Office who are “deeply concerned” with what they describe as unethical behavior by their boss.

 

Last week, Utah County Attorney David Leavitt was accused of inappropriately dismissing a stalking charge against a campaign donor who also served an LDS mission with Leavitt’s brother.

 

Employees now say Leavitt asked members of the office to go easy on a “handyman” who did masonry work at the county attorney’s family home in Orem.

 

Dale Bowles has been booked into the Utah County Jail more than 40 times, according to a jail spokesperson.

 

Leavitt said he first prosecuted Bowles in his previous role as Juab County Attorney. The two eventually reacquainted and Leavitt invited him to work at his home in Utah County.

I wonder who the Anonymous donor was?

 

Utah County attorney heads to Ukraine to help anonymous donor find 500 families to support

Posted - May 11, 2022 at 10:31 p.m

 

PROVO — Utah County Attorney David Leavitt is heading to Ukraine to help an anonymous donor select 500 families to support for an entire year.

 

"He wants to be generous, but he doesn't necessarily want the credit for it," Leavitt said.

 

Finding 500 families to support

To help with this generous donation, Leavitt will be on the ground in Ukraine trying to identify those 500 families. Once the families are identified, Leavitt says Visa gift cards will be provided to each family for immediate financial assistance until bank accounts can be set up.

 

"Really what we're trying to do is humanize what's going on in people's lives," he said.

 

Leavitt is more than familiar with the war-torn country; it's almost a home away from home of sorts for Leavitt and his wife. For 14 years (2004 to 2018), they worked in legal reform efforts in Ukraine as part of The Leavitt Institute for International Development.

 

"Our role was to teach the jury trial and American criminal law in 35 law schools throughout Ukraine and Moldova," Leavitt said.
