David Nabors announces candidacy for sheriff of Hardeman County
PRESS RELEASE FROM DAVID NABORS:
HARDEMAN COUNTY, Tenn. — David Nabors, a seasoned law enforcement professional with over a decade of experience, officially announces his candidacy for Sheriff of Hardeman County. Presently serving as a Special Agent for the State of Tennessee, Nabors brings extensive investigative expertise, statewide connections, and proven leadership to the race. With professional relationships and resources across Tennessee poised to assist, he is committed to establishing the kind of Sheriff’s Office that the citizens of Hardeman County deserve.
“I am running on three core principles: transparency, accountability, and competency,” said Nabors. “It’s time to restore trust in the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office and ensure it operates at the highest level of professionalism and service.”
A central component of Nabors’ plan involves implementing body-worn cameras for deputies to promote transparency and protect both citizens and officers. Body cameras provide an objective record of interactions, ensuring accountability across the board while strengthening community confidence in law enforcement.
In addition, Nabors plans to aggressively pursue and implement state and federal grants that are currently underutilized. With Hardeman County facing the loss of several million dollars due to recent lawsuits, securing outside funding will be critical to stabilizing the department’s financial position without placing additional burden on taxpayers.
Leadership and personnel will also be a top priority. Nabors is committed to placing the right individuals in key positions to effectively support the community. By fostering a culture of professionalism, integrity, and service, he aims to rebuild morale within the department and reestablish pride among deputies and staff.
Community partnerships will play a vital role in his administration. He plans to work closely with the Hardeman County Rescue Squad—an often under-recognized, self-funded organization responsible for saving countless lives throughout the county. Strengthening collaboration between the Sheriff’s Office and the Rescue Squad will enhance public safety and emergency response efforts.
“These are just a few of our plans to make the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office what it is capable of being—a department that the citizens will finally be proud of,” Nabors said. “Hardeman County deserves strong leadership, responsible management, and a Sheriff who is committed to serving with integrity every single day.” I look forward to earning your trust. I ask for your support and prayers to be your next Hardeman County Sheriff.
