Judge Removes Miami Townships Fiscal Officer for Illegal Gold Coin Investment
A Montgomery County judge has ousted Miami Townships fiscal officer, Robert Matthews, for violating state law by attempting to invest $9.7 million in public funds in gold coins without trustee approval. Matthews plan would have incurred over $380,000 in fees and $30,000 annually for storage. The townships finance director halted the deal, and Matthews was suspended in October 2025. The judge ruled that Matthews knowingly broke the rules, leading to his removal and a four-year ban from public office.
