Everywhere and everyday in Tennessee and including today , because of continued political pressure , this great State of Tennessee continues with it's continued efforts in refusing to clean up it's Tennessee Highway Patrol Department. Every THP officer knows so and so , and "THAT" prevents them from being fired.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about : I had heard some rumors about a THP officer being such a person , who can not be fired. So , before writing this down , I went to his small town , just outside of The Choo Choo and had an interesting talk with the town 's judge , who just happens to be blood related to the Trooper in question. You see , this Trooper had made sexual advances on several women , during traffic stops , for their heinous crimes of running over a "Chicken Turd" , with their motorized vehicles. When the ladies refused his advances , he immediately wrote them all , a citation for excessive speeding on the interstate (which they were not on at the time).
Talking with the judge , he did confirm the complaints did indeed appear valid , BUTT , it didn't matter because he was the offending Trooper's uncle , the Trooper could not be fired and because he was also protected under the provisions of both , the Political Protection Act of 1811 for political cronies and political police officials in the State of Tennessee and the Tennessee Republican Party for Crony Protection and Representation Act , of 1931. I did ask him if Franklin Police also fell under this act and the judge said , " No. This act only applies to THP personnel and certain political figure heads. " He did mention , if there's a problem with any police officer in this state , the Chief of that police department had the power to deal with that offending individual.
So , there you have it boys and girls. The truth about THP and for desert , I got you an answer to the problems with Franklin Police officers. And "No" , I'm not giving you the judge's name since he gave me more material to write for you :)
