NORFOLK â Nearly two years after being indicted by a federal grand jury, former Norfolk Sheriff Bob McCabe is set to go to trial Tuesday on multiple corruption charges.
The trial in U.S. District Court in Norfolk is expected to last about two weeks. Dozens of witnesses, including some of McCabeâs former deputies, are expected to testify.
McCabe, 63, served as Norfolkâs sheriff for 22 years. He retired in February 2017 while a federal investigation of his dealings with jail contractors was ongoing. Several months before that, he lost his bid to become the cityâs mayor.
