MINNEAPOLIS – Payroll information shows ex-Hennepin County Sheriff Dave Hutchinson collected more than $120,000 while on paid leave for the past ten months.
Hutchinson pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DWI in December 2021 after a crash near Alexandria in his county vehicle, and began paid leave five months later. He is also under an internal investigation into his conduct as sheriff.
Hutchinson recently returned to his position as a Metro Transit Police sergeant, but remains on paid leave while that investigation continues.
