The former Cascade County undersheriff made his first appearance in Cascade County court Friday afternoon.

John Glen Stevens, the current Cascade County Disaster Emergency Services Coordinator, is facing a felony theft charge.

He is accused of keeping three firearms that were bought with county money after he retired from the Cascade County Sheriff’s Office.

Stevens was placed on administrative leave from his position with DES in December. Scott Van Dyken is the acting DES coordinator at this time.

At Thursday’s press conference, Cascade County Sheriff Jesse Slaughter said another person will be charged early next week.
