But did it have flame decals like that other (now former) Democrat Attorney General’s?
From arkansasbusiness.com:
Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel on Monday said he’ll reimburse the state $2,903 for personal use of his state vehicle and apologized to Lt. Gov. Bill Halter for criticism he leveled at Halter for reporting the use of his state car as personal income.
McDaniel, who last week said he would give up his state-issued hybrid SUV, said he would pay back the state based on a law requiring employees to reimburse the state 15 cents a mile for any personal mileage on a state vehicle. The law, however, specifically exempts constitutional officers.
“Nonetheless, I think it’s the best way for me legally and ethically to resolve the issues going forward,” McDaniel said, according to prepared remarks for a speech he delivered Monday morning in Eureka Springs. McDaniel’s office said he planned to deliver the same speech in Springdale Monday night.
