Court documents show that a cabinet member for Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt has been indicted for attempted bribery of an officer.

Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter has filed charges against the Oklahoma Secretary of Digital Transformation and Administration, David Ostrowe for attempted bribery of two Oklahoma Tax Commissioners.

Our news partners with the News on 6 reports that Ostrowe asked commissioners Steve Burrage and Charles Prater to waive the interest and penalty fees for a company owned by the state. Court documents show that if the commissioners didn’t do this, funds would be withheld from the tax commission.

Governor Kevin Stitt’s office released a statement that said in part they are aware of the allegations and are working to obtain more information.
