A former county employee who profited after he encouraged a contractor to hire his wife’s company for several projects was placed on probation last week for a term of one year and ordered to pay $344,000 in restitution.that he violated a conflict-of-interest prohibition barring county employees from having a financial stake in any contracts they make in their official capacity on the job.
Bishop was the chief deputy for systems/chief information officer at the county’s Assessors/Recorder/County Clerk’s Office. According to prosecutors, between March 2017 and the end of 2020, Bishop encouraged a county contractor to hire his wife’s company for several information technology projects. He later approved invoices for the work.
