On April 6, Cory Carroll, secretary-treasurer of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen’s Regional and Shortline Committee of Adjustment, was indicted in Minneapolis federal court for embezzlement. Prosecutors say that during February 2007-March 2009, Carroll, 39, a resident of Albert Lea, illegally diverted about $35,000 from the labor organization to his own use. The indictment follows an investigation by the Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards.
