Does Rogersville Have a New Police Chief?

The small Eastern Lauderdale County town of Rogersville recently advertised for one patrol officer and a chief for its oft maligned constabulary. Many considered it odd wording, since the two employees to be replaced were chief and assistant chief. At that time, we asked if the new assistant chief had already been picked from current members of the force. No answers were forthcoming from any quarter.

We were also told by many that Chief Terry Holden was not leaving until a replacement was found. On Friday, Holden had his official going away bash. 

So does the fair city of Rogersville have a new chief? So far no announcements. 

Meanwhile in Wayne County, Tennessee, the sheriff upped the number of pot plants found in an illegal grow from around 350 to over 500. Just how does that happen? His officers can't count? Ownership of 350 plants will bring you 30 years. Ownership of 500 or more will bring you Life. How convenient for law enforcement that this number increased...especially if you want to confiscate the old warehouse. Merely an observation, of course.

Meanwhile in Muscle Shoals...
