Brunswick Co. Health Director issued summons

SOUTHPORT, NC (WWAY) — A misdemeanor criminal summons has been issued for David Stanley, Brunswick County’s Health Director.

Tuesday evening WWAY spoke with Stanley’s attorney, Jason Disbrow, who says the charges of cyberstalking and harrassing phone calls were filed by Stanley’s ex-wife, and that the dispute is over a child they share joint custody of.

The summons states the offenses happened between Aug. 26 and Sept. 23.

Disbrow added that he believes the charges against Stanley will be dropped.
