Update on Shooting in Franklin County

Franklin County authorities are still waiting on the TBI to complete their investigation into a shooting last week where a deputy shot Michael Adams of Pleasant Grove who was wanted by authorities.
Adams had recently been charged with aggravated rape. Arrangements were made for Adams to plead guilty and accept a 10 year prison sentence.
However, when he was scheduled to go before a judge, he failed to appear. The felony bench warrant was issued for Adams following the no-show.
Franklin County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Chris Guess stated this week that he understood that the TBI is in the process of completing their investigation. They will then turn their findings over to District Attorney Michael Taylor, who will determine if there will be any charges filed.
