McGuireWoods LLP charged Eastern Virginia Medical School more than $365,000 for their investigation into Gov. Ralph Northam’s racist yearbook photo, according to copies of two invoices sent to the school. Details of the law firm’s investigation were released in May, but the report was “inconclusive” on whether Gov. Northam is in a racist photo that appears on his 1984 EVMS yearbook page. The first invoice billed to the school on March 31 is for $76,141,36 and charges for work done during the month of February. A second and final invoice was billed to the school in August for work done during the months of March, April, May, and June. It charges $291,785.27. News 3 obtained the invoices through a Freedom of Information Act request.

A petition to remove Strasburg Mayor Richard Orndorff Jr. from office was filed in Shenandoah County Circuit Court on Monday. The petition includes 112 signatures from town residents who said they were registered to vote. “Christie Monahan, et al” is listed as the plaintiff in the case. This is the first step in a process to potentially remove the mayor from office through a referendum election ordered by a judge. The petition follows several months of unrest in town and on social media after Orndorff drove a John Deere Gator recreational vehicle into the Strasburg Town Library on May 17 during the first night of the town’s Mayfest celebration. Orndorff has been charged by Virginia State Police with two misdemeanors — driving under the influence of alcohol and driving a recreational vehicle on a public highway.
