North Carolina State Treasurer Dale Folwell is under investigation for potentially misusing state-owned vehicles for personal errands. The investigation, requested by Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman, follows a compliance audit by the Department of Administration’s Motor Fleet Management division, which revealed that Folwell may have used state vehicles for travel to non-state-related locations such as medical offices, country clubs, and Republican Party offices. Folwell, who has served as State Treasurer since 2017, maintains that he has used the vehicles within state guidelines and cooperated fully with the investigation, providing extensive documentation. The case highlights the importance of transparency and accountability for public officials. No charges have been filed against Folwell at this time, and the investigation is ongoing.
