Hancock County, TN (WOKI) A months-long inquiry by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation results in the indictment Monday, June 12 of a Sneedville man for threatening public officials.
TBI officials say special agents began looking into allegations involving 46-year-old Marty Rouse back in January. They determined that Rouse made statements threatening to harm Hancock County Sheriff Brad Brewer and an investigator from the District Attorney General’s Office.
The Hancock County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging Rouse with two counts of Retaliation. Rouse was served in the Hancock County Jail, where he was already being held on unrelated charges.
