Zach Cole Borghi, Bethlehem's RTK Officer and LC Comm'r, Arrested at City Hall

Zach Cole Borgi is the City of Bethlehem's Right-to-Know Officer. He's also an elected Lehigh County Comm'r who has served since 2022 and is currently seeking re-election as the Democratic nominee in District 3 (parts of Allentown, Bethlehem, Fountain Hill, Catty and Hanover). He's seeking re-election as the Democratic nominee. But he might have to run from inside a jail cell. Several sources at Bethlehem City Hall confirm that he was arrested by federal agents on Thursday and led out of the building in handcuffs. 

As of Thursday night, there was no record of Cole Borghi's arrest on PACER, an online tracker of federal cases. This could mean that the indictment is currently sealed. From what I've been able to put together, the charges might be drug-related. 

I've found no previous record of criminal activity by Cole Borghi. But he was sued for $3,000 in back rent in January and judgment was entered against him.

Apparently the RTK officer is an additional duty. What is his paid position in the City?
