Geary County Sheriff Tony Wolf is scheduled to appear for a status hearing in his case in Geary County District Court at 9:30 a.m. Friday.

Wolf is charged with three counts of Felony Theft and one misdemeanor count of Misuse of Public Funds. The charges allege Wolf used county funds to purchase items that were then sold for personal profit, or maintained for personal use, of allegedly giving a county-owned firearm as a gift to a third party and on the misdemeanor allegation of allegedly using public dollars in a manner not authorized by law.

Reliable souces have informed JCPost.com that Wolf is also expected to resign from the position of Geary County Sheriff.

Wolf was first elected sheriff in 2012 by Geary County voters, and then re-elected in 2016. He began his tenure with the Sheriff’s Department in 1996 as a corrections officer and later moved to the patrol division. He rose through the ranks to Patrol Lieutenant and then was appointed Undersheriff of Geary County in 2011.
