NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - District Attorney General Glenn Funk has asked the TBI to investigate whether Nashville Mayor Megan Barry or others violated any criminal law, according to a statement from the D.A.’s office.Funk has asked TBI Director Mark Gwyn to investigate whether Barry and/or others, including Sgt. Rob Forrest, violated any criminal law including misappropriation of public funds and official misconduct.
On Thursday afternoon, Barry released a statement regarding the TBI investigation: “Earlier this morning, I spoke with General Funk and he informed me that he would be requesting a TBI investigation that could answer questions of legality in this matter. I will fully cooperate with this process, but as this is an ongoing investigation, I will have no further comments about this matter.” – Mayor Megan Barry
The chair of the Metro Council's Board of Ethical Conduct Chair said there had been no complaints filed against Barry or any former police agent assigned to her security detail."As Chair of the Board, I can confirm that no complaint has been filed against the Mayor or any former police agent assigned to her security detail," Councilmember Sheri Weiner said in a release. "It is not the role of the Board or its members to initiate complaints.
"I will not comment on allegations, and will not draw conclusions on matters not before the Board."
Barry admitted on Wednesday that she had an extramarital affair with Sgt. Rob Forrest, a Metro Police officer in charge of the mayor's security detail, for more than two years. Forrest submitted a notice to retire on Jan. 17 effective on Wednesday (Jan. 31).
The News 4 I-Team found that Barry and Forrest took nine trips together – just the two of them – in 2017. Some of those locations included Athens, Greece, San Francisco and New York City, all tied to leadership or work-related trips.
On the nine trips when Barry and Forrest traveled alone, taxpayers paid more than $14,000 in travel costs.
Forrest has also earned more than $119,000 in overtime since 2015 when Barry took office.
Wow. Pretty expensive nookie had it not been on the taxpayers’ money.
“..there had been no complaints filed against Barry or any former police agent assigned to her security detail.”......
Liberals don’t go by the truth, it’s the “power of suggestion” that they live by. It’s an old Clinton practice, throw something against the wall and hope some of it sticks.
Here we go again.
Traumatic Brain Injury?
I guessed the thug was a democrat as there was zero mention in the article.
Trump has all the right enemies. It’s reassuring.
I think she’s toast. Why? ACLU, NAACP, BLM and Jocques Clemons.

“I never thought that I would get caught.
It seemed like a perfect crime.
Baby, you left me defenseless,
But I’ve only got one plea.
Lock me away inside of your love,
And throw away the key.
I’m guilty, of love in the first degree.”
Just a little R&R. /S
So the mayor of a city has more important things to do than greet the President of the United States when he comes to town? Nasty ho.
Hope she runs the city better than she conducts her family affairs. Her 22-year-old son died of a drug overdose just months ago, and now this . . .
Athens, Tennessee, would have been much cheaper. It’s just up the road a piece from Soddy Daisy.
“General Funk” (snicker, snicker!)
Isn’t a Major Funk worse than a General Funk?
We want the funk,
Give up the funk,
We need the funk,
We gotta have that funk?
