Tulsa County Commissioners have decided to reconsider allowing Sheriff Stanley Glanz to use public money to pay for his attorneys.

Commissioners voted last week to allow Glanz to use the sheriff's service funds to pay a law firm to represent him during grand jury investigation of his office.

About 50 community members spoke out against that on Tuesday at a town hall meeting hosted by Commissioner Karen Keith.

Commissioners will reconsider the decision at their regular Monday morning meeting.
