Tennessee State Senator Brent Taylor has been given the opportunity to investigate the allegations made against Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy and other district attorneys when the Senate passed Senate Resolution 120.
A judicial committee will be tasked by Taylor’s new resolution to examine the allegations against D.A. Mulroy as well as two others in Tennessee D.A. Glen Funk of Nashville and D.A. Chris Stanford of McMinnville.
According to the verbiage from the bill, Taylor frequently targets Mulroy because he feels the D.A. is soft towards criminals and has “committed serious ethical violations and abused his authority by pursuing a personal and partisan agenda.”
As a result, Sen. Taylor said “This approach helps maintain impartiality while reinforcing the importance of holding all public officials accountable.”
