Ohio Inspector General Thomas P. Charles and a diverse investigative team will look at “ everything and anything we find that’s alleged to be wrongdoing” in a probe of former Attorney General Marc Dann’s office.Charles briefed reporters this morning on the investigation that began with yesterday’s shock-and-awe raid on Dann’s offices in Columbus and Youngstown. Computers, telephones, other electronic devices were confiscated, along with what Charles called “a lot” of documents.

Dann, 46, a Democrat elected in 2006, resigned yesterday following 5 1/2 weeks of intense scrutiny about sexual harassment and other allegations of wrongdoing in his office. He was in office just 17 months.

At least 10 federal and state agencies are forming a task force to investigate a broad range of potential problems, included sexual harassment, obstruction of justice, perjury, misuse of state property and other issues.

“We have no agenda other than to do this right and do it fair,” Charles said.

He said there is no timetable for the inquiry. Gov. Ted Strickland will appoint an interim replacement for Dann until Ohio voters will select someone in the Nov. 4 election to serve out the remainder of Dann’s term, which expires in January 2011.

Legislation approved on lighting track by the General Assembly and signed by Gov. Ted Strickland empowered the inspector general to head the investigation on a one-time basis. Charles’ agency is normally limited to only those agencies under the governor’s control.
