The FBI special agent who headed an investigation into public corruption in Clay County has died.
The Lexington Herald Leader reports 46 year old Timothy S. Briggs apparently suffered a heart attack while jogging with another agent Tuesday near the FBI office in London.
The Clay County case began with a drug investigation that turned up evidence of vote-buying and corruption by public officials... including a former circuit judge, a former school superintendent, magistrates and city council members, a former mayor, a one-time assistant police chief, and two county clerks.
