And the information we&#8217;ve gathered so far indicates that it is not a county road in Cherokee County.&#8221;   A warranty deed for the developer of that subdivision says the road is private &#8212; and if residents want the county to maintain it, they must file for formal approval from the commissioners court.   The investigation should reportedly take a couple more weeks and be ready for the DA in early October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSK &#8212; The Cherokee County Sheriff&#8217;s Department is going through records of Precinct 3 Commissioner Katherine Pinotti &#8212; and the results may be brought before a grand jury.
