Taft, CA — A former San Joaquin County sheriff serving a six-month term on federal corruption charges was released today.
Former Sheriff Baxter Dunn will now serve six months of house arrest, but officials representing Taft Correctional Institution were not able to specify when the arrest in his Manteca house would begin.
Dunn pleaded guilty in January to mail fraud in connection to a corruption scheme that involved other San Joaquin County officials, including former county supervisor Lynn Bedford and former San Joaquin County Marshall Monte McFall.
