Former sheriff Kyle Overmyer revealed the harrowing ordeal behind his 43-count indictment for stealing prescription drugs during an exclusive interview. The investigation began in 2015 after a pharmacist reported suspicious activity involving Overmyer obtaining narcotics from multiple doctors. Overmyer, who admitted to battling addiction to painkillers like Vicodin, described the moment he was confronted and the difficult choice to quit, even flushing his last pills down the toilet.

The Attorney General's office launched a criminal probe in early 2016, leading to an indictment in August with potential prison time of up to 15 years. Despite the charges, Overmyer continued running for sheriff, insisting he wouldn’t “go down without a fight.” He turned himself in and was temporarily held at a neighboring county jail before posting a $150,000 bond. Overmyer’s story highlights the challenges of addiction and accountability within law enforcement ranks.
