Another name has come up for Crime Control secretary.

Reuben Young, chief legal counsel for Gov. Mike Easley, may be under consideration for the Cabinet appointment by Gov.-elect Beverly Perdue.

Other names that have been suggested: Gaston County Sheriff Alan Cloninger and Down East district attorney Scott Thomas.

Current Secretary Bryan Beatty's nomination to the N.C. Utilities Commission means he is almost certainly no longer under consideration.

Young is best known to the press as author of a letter that said there was "absolutely no evidence" that the administration deleted e-mails illegally.
