A Dauphin County judge has dismissed 305 of the 449 charges filed against former Harrisburg mayor Stephen Reed, who has been accused of siphoning public funds from civic projects to purchase a host of artifacts and memorabilia, such as a vampire-hunting kit, that he allegedly planned to use for a museum.
In a seven-page order filed May 12 and docketed May 16, Senior Judge Kevin A. Hess found the majority of Reed’s charges to have been filed beyond the statute of limitations, including those alleging corrupt organizations, bribery and theft. The bulk of the remaining charges involve receiving stolen property.
