State Attorney Angela Corey, during a mid-morning news conference, announced that Meserve is accused of pocketing $105,000 and participating in a real estate deal five years ago in Mayport.
"As a public official he used his role for private gain," said Corey.
Gov. Charlie Crist issued an executive order this evening suspending Meserve without pay until the matter is resolved.
The former Atlantic Beach mayor and current councilman representing District 13 also made a point of saying that he "welcomes the opportunity to clear (his) name."
