Felony Charges
Below are press releases verifying felony charges against Ryan while a finance officer in Edgerton (The second article points out that Ryan’s office was the ONLY office “broken into”. There was no sign of forced entry at the main door however, so the perpetrator had a key. Presumably the perpetrator would also have a key to inside offices. If the intent was merely to steal documents to hide evidence, a key would have been used. If the intent was to make the occupier of the office look innocent, a break-in would have been staged.)

Official's records stolen in city financial flap
From Chicago Tribune wires.
Dateline - EDGERTON, Wis. - Records were stolen from the office of the city's finance director over the weekend, police said.
The documents apparently pertained to city financial matters that were called into question last month. Detective Barry Irmen said no other items were reported missing in City Hall, and there was no sign of forced entry into the building. But the door to the office of Finance Director Ryan Scott appeared to have been pried open, Irmen said. Scott discovered papers and audio tapes of city meetings missing from his office Monday morning, Irmen said. "(The burglar) could be someone with a key, but that has not been determined," Irmen said. During a press conference in May, Scott said Edgerton taxpayers were "snowed" on the financing of a city swimming pool complex. Interest from city investments had been applied to pool payments, which is not illegal. However, taxpayers had to make up that revenue for general expenses.
