The special investigators' report on corruption in DeKalb County casts doubt on Interim CEO Lee May's ability to lead.

The report's co-author, former attorney general Mike Bowers, called May a "liar" after he said he'd never taken a loan from a subordinate.

Now, some DeKalb residents are questioning May's ability to govern a county in crisis.

It's a stunning turn-around for a politician who many thought had a bright political future.
