      It’s the the south that’s why everyone is a republican religious weirdo who will condemn anyone for the smallest things. Notice how she was labeled as “inmate”. Red states have some of the worst bigots but also some of the worst literacy rates and poverty rates in the USA due to say bigotry. The saying good ol boys club comes from the south. Red states creep me out because they are some dystopian version of the USA.

    What about the woman in the backseat? No doubt handcuffed with zero chance of survival, basically "offed" at the hands of police while in their custody. Not unlike the young lady handcuffed & locked in a cop car parked on a train track and hit by a train in CO. Luckily, she lived.

    Some of you apparently didn't listen to the story. He was new to the area; he moved to TN from NY 2 years ago. This was also his first-ever arrest as a rookie deputy, and based on the call, it's highly possible and plausible that he was not yet familiar with the particular location of the call. There's also an assumption that he just left the woman in the back seat to die, when again, it's possible that after coming up for air, he intended to go back to the car to try and save her. At this point, we can only assume most of the details about this situation.

      As a former Deputy in Meigs County those cars aren’t equipped with up to date GPS technology. No dash cams or anything. And implying that his turning down into a place of seclusion was fishy is ridiculous. If he had nefarious motives for doing that he wouldn’t have driven the car into the river and drowned if that’s what it was all about. He had only been here a couple of months and he wasn’t familiar with the area and I can’t say for sure that I would have been either and I been here for years. But yes there were two lives lost in a horrible accident and that’s the truth. What the media wants to report and how they choose to report it is no reflection on either of them. Horrible tragedy but people want to make it into something else since it involved a Deputy Sheriff. Prayers for both and I do mean both families.
