Officers Suspended For Working With Taylor Swift
Six Metro Nashville Police officers were suspended for driving Taylor Swift’s security team after being denied permission to perform the outside work.
Officers Melvin Brown III, Mike Clark, Milton Elrod, Thomas Rollins and Sgt. Donald Long were suspended for 10 days, and Sgt. Daniel Walz was suspended for 12 days, according to The Tennessean
The officers sought approval for the driving job, but their request was rejected, according to the department’s internal investigation, which was completed in May.
Elrod, who recently retired from the department, said in an interview that they continued doing the job anyway, hoping supervisors wouldn’t find out. He said they needed the $30 an hour the work provided.
