The Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office has decided not to file any criminal charges regarding last weekend’s campaign sign incident.

Neither Hamilton County Council candidate Mark Hall nor his wife, Lisa Hall, who was seen on camera removing campaign signs belonging to Hamilton County Council President Steve Schwartz from the northwest corner of 211th Street and Oak Bay Drive will be prosecuted.

A press release from the sheriff’s office read, “Investigators from the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office forwarded their findings in the case of missing campaign signs to the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office on Wednesday, May 2. After reviewing the findings, no criminal charges are forthcoming in the incident.”
