Oklahoma Attorney General declines charges against Commissioner Myles Davidson after review of 2025 allegations

State review ends without criminal case

Oklahoma County Commissioner Myles Davidson will not face criminal charges after the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office reviewed an Oklahoma City Police Department investigation tied to allegations raised in 2025. The attorney general’s office determined the available evidence did not support filing charges, closing the state-level criminal review referenced in recent public reporting.

How the matter became public

The case entered public view in September 2025, when a county employee sought court protection and alleged a pattern of unwanted conduct. The allegations included claims of stalking and sexual harassment, and later filings described alleged sexual assault incidents. Davidson has denied wrongdoing.

As the allegations surfaced, Davidson—then serving as chair of the Board of Oklahoma County Commissioners—moved to temporarily transfer the chair role and certain appointments to other commissioners. The changes were presented as precautionary steps pending legal outcomes. Davidson’s attorney at the time characterized the allegations as false and said Davidson did not plan to resign.

Roles and jurisdiction

Davidson is the elected commissioner for Oklahoma County’s District 3, which includes communities such as Edmond, Luther and Arcadia and parts of Oklahoma City. In Oklahoma, criminal charging decisions typically rest with local district attorneys, though matters can be reviewed by the attorney general’s office in certain circumstances, including when conflicts are identified or assistance is requested.

What the decision does — and does not — resolve

The attorney general’s determination means no state-filed criminal case is moving forward based on the reviewed investigative file. It does not automatically resolve other potential proceedings that can exist alongside or separate from criminal prosecution, such as:

• protective order litigation in civil court;
• employment or administrative reviews tied to workplace conduct;
• ethics or governance disputes involving county operations.

Davidson has remained active in county government during the period since the allegations emerged, including participation in high-profile county debates over jail and public-safety governance.

What happens next

With criminal charges declined at the state level, any further legal developments would depend on new evidence, separate complaints, or decisions by other authorities with jurisdiction. County leadership and the public will continue to weigh the operational implications of unresolved allegations and the broader scrutiny already focused on Oklahoma County governance.
