The obstruction of justice charge against the Salem elected official was changed from a Class B to a Class A misdemeanor.
Salem Budget Committee and Zoning Board of Adjustment member Patrick McDougall appeared in the 10th Circuit Court of Salem Tuesday and after a back-and-forth between attorneys, no change was made to McDougall's bail.
