According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Coffee County District Attorney General Craig Northcott has requested TBI Agents to investigate a report of missing training aids (drugs) assigned to Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper and K9 handler Brent McCawley. THP reported the information to the TBI and the District Attorney General once they determined the training aids were missing.
The investigation is active and ongoing, and because of that they are not able to offer any additional specific information at this time.
The Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security confirms that Trooper McCawley is on approved sick leave from the Department of Safety and Homeland Security.
Trooper McCawley was hired as a state trooper on January 22, 2012. His first assignment was at the Coffee County Scales. McCawley was transferred to his current assignment with the Criminal Investigation Division I-Plus Team in Coffee County in January 2014.
Allegedly McCawley has moved out of his Coffee County residence
