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.
