"The Sheriff of Naughty-ham??"

"This is not about the weakness of a man, yet the corruptibility of a public servant!" In most cases, an

affair would be a private issue beyond the reach of public scrutiny and rightfully so. And of course having an

affair is certainly not a criminal activity by any means, however if you are a public official and you

use public property to facilitate or otherwise engage in or further an affair, then under Tennessee state law, it

would stand to reason “Official Misconduct” may have  in fact occurred or be occurring

and thus making it criminal and open to public review!  

Statement from Sheriff Davis: 

"I know I have made a mistake. I am human. I feel that it is between God, my wife, and me. I want the people of Humphreys County to know I am truly embarrassed about my personal life being brought out this way. However, this matter has never interfered with my loyalty to my job, my community, or my oath of office."

Contrary to this statement any use of public property or the use of public provided services or funds for personal gain would be nothing less than an interference with Sheriff Davis' loyalty in every respect he mentions! How can anyone state they are loyal to the public after they have violated the trust of that public by using their provided tax resources to engage in an extra-martial affair?  Not only is this a violation of the public trust and state law, it is a violation of the Humphreys County Code of Ethics as well.

“County Mayor Jessie Wallace did not say a word at Monday's County Commission meeting when citizens demanded action against Davis. The County Commission did not utter a word about the Sheriff. Not one Commissioner suggested it was a topic of county business. Today, the County Mayor wants everyone to know there is a reason for the silence”…They don't have the power and authority," said Wallace."It's an assumption, a misconception. The county commission cannot remove anyone from office. “Wallace said there are reasons why a county commission cannot discipline an elected sheriff. However, an ouster suit would be possible. The only thing the County Attorney could do would be redundant to what is already being done," said Wallace via a WSMV News Story dated November 17th, 2011.

Regardless of Mr. Jessie Wallace's statements to WSMV, he and the County Commissioners do have the power to take action against Sheriff Davis under the Humphreys County Code of Ethics. What they lack is the will to protect the public. However Mr. Wallace and "the Colonel" John Lee Williams do have the will to protect each other! Mr. Wallace's inaction against Sheriff Davis in a prefect example of how he too is part of the problems we face in Humphreys County! By taking no action Mr. Wallace sends the message that it is OK for elected leaders to abuse their positions and it is OK for these same elected leaders to have sex in county buildings! 

After the assault of Mr. Glenn Capps in March of 2012, in-which Mr. Capps has filed a lawsuit against the Humphreys County Sheriff's Office and Sheriff Davis, Capps Lawsuit. Sheriff Davis went on Fox 17 and made a statement that he wanted to ensure the public that we would get the very best from him and his office and that if any wrong doing had occurred it would be handled and not go "untouched". Well Sheriff what about your wrong doing? Do you really believe that using taxpayer resources to meet and have sex outside your marriage is the very best we can expect from you? What about holding yourself responsible for your own actions?!

Six lawsuits, misuse of county funds and property, abuse of authority, violations of civil rights, not notifying the public about escaped inmates who were later caught in Louisiana with a stolen car form Tennessee that had a meth lab in it, taking no action against deputies repeatedly accused of assault, inappropriate conduct with inmates, and the worst betrayal of all, taking bribes to protect drug dealers! IF THIS IS YOUR VERY BEST SHERIFF WE WOULD HATE TO SEE YOU AT YOUR WORSE!!!
