Amherst County attorney to Sweet Briar: Retain documents

"Amherst County Attorney Ellen Bowyer... is examining is whether the donated funds are being used for the purpose for which they were solicited.

She referred to a section of state code that states the county attorney, in addition to the commonwealth’s attorney and the Virginia Attorney General, may bring “action” against any charitable organization if the attorney has reason to believe such organization has operated or is about to operate in violation of a chapter of state code that involves solicitation of contributions."

"...she has had communication with Sweet Briar’s legal counsel regarding the question of the use of recently donated funds. She said she has filed no legal action and is in the process of collecting information."
