Michael Crum Case Headed To Trial

A lawsuit against the Town of Greeneville filed by a former assistant police chief is set to go to jury trial. Micheal Crum, a former assistant police chief at the Greeneville Police Department, filed the lawsuit after he was terminated. A review alleged Crum had discriminated against women, exercised favoritism and had taken part in illegal practices with other members of the department. Crum initially sought more than $1.25 million in damages, claiming his rights had been violated by the city when he was fired. The case will go to trial on June 11.
