An investigator with the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office has been fired amid allegations of wrongdoing, according to authorities.
Those allegations date to Deon Thornton’s tenure as a detective with the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office, according to Sheriff-elect Paul Burch. He said the department looked into a complaint from a citizen and then referred the matter to the Alabama Attorney General’s Office.
Mobile County District Attorney Ashely Rich said the investigator, one of three in her office, had only worked for her for a few months. She said she first placed him on administrative leave and then terminated him about two weeks ago.Rich deferred comment to the Attorney General’s Office and added that her office was not involved in the investigation.
