Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

The type of person who arrested him:
Christofascist nutjob.
Who the fuck let him become sheriff?! America is a seriously messed up place.
Oh, sherrif is an elected position in Tennessee.
So other christofascist nutjobs.
This is true almost everywhere in the US.
which has benefits if people en large act in good faith.
Perry County, Tennessee is only 8,300 people. There are only a few towns in LA metro smaller than that. Both LA and Orange Counties have had corrupt sheriff’s that were sentenced to jail. Imagine what it would be like in a county where everyone personally knows your family and there are very few checks and balances on power?
It must be like living in Idiocracy there.
I saw a docu about places like this once. People don't dare to express non-Republican political opinions let alone openly support one. Violence threatened and carried out. And of course election isn't quite as secret as you'd think. Voting anyhthing but Trump requires balls.
Haha brutal! Not surprising!
Acab is true but the way Sheriffs work makes them extra Acab its literally unbelievable.
As others have pointed out, the sheriff is an elected position. All you have to do is move in the right circles, and out in the boonies those circles are the local church(es) and republican party.
Turns out he's the evil.
"Are we the baddies?"
Exactly and it's almost as if he's bragging about being evil and the people closest to him not realizing it.
Epstein's Law: every accusation from a Conservative [of being guilty of a thing] is a confession [of being guilty of the thing]
Paranoia is a disease unto itself
And may I add
The person standing to you
May not be who they appear to be
So take precautions
haikubot, is that you? ❤️
haikus don't have a sweet bass line like this
It’s as Jesus said: “Do unto others as you suspect them of potentially doing unto you.”
this guy evils!
