I thought every state has a public access via internet to court cases, arrests, court rulings and sentences. I guess I was being naïve. I cannot find that TN has one. But if that's the case, it should change.
There is no way in this day and age that the people of TN should be looking in the rearview mirror on the behavior of this man. We should not be depending on the media or LE to tell us what has been going on with him. It should be and should have been available for scrutiny a long time ago.
In contrast, in the state where I live (MO) on Feb. 18, 2014 a man snatched 10 year old Hailey Owens right off the street while walking home. Within 4 days 10,000 people showed up for her candlelight vigil to show support for her family and also demonstrate the outrage for such an act. She had been allegedly shot in the head within 3 1/2 hours.
The contrast I'm trying to make is, by the time he was behind bars we were able to know his record. Not waiting for MSM to report it, which they did. But to this day I can tell you where and when he will appear in court, any motions filed for bond, who the judge is, etc. It should be public information.
If I were a resident in TN I would get with a media rep, senator or something to get it changed. It's inconceivable to me. The PUBLIC could have picked up on his behavior many arrests ago had they only known. This is just my opinions.
