Two Washington County Sheriff's Deputies have been cited in federal court on misdemeanor charges related to improper conduct in a local park.
According a press release issued by Sheriff Ed Graybeal this afternoon, Officer Chris Adkins, 30, was charged by the U.S. Forestry Service on allegations of possessing alcohol in a prohibited area, public nudity, public intoxication and child endangerment.
Officer Scarlett Dennison, 42, was also charged with possession of alcohol in a prohibited area, public intoxication and public nudity.
The allegations stem from an incident that occurred in Carter County on July 30.
Both officers have been suspended with pay pending an internal investigation by the WCSO and the outcome of the Federal Court proceedings on the allegations made by the U.S. Forestry Service.
