Kingsport Police Officer Horne

Horne admitted to laughing- A 19-year veteran of the Kingsport Police Department is appealing his firing over the handling of beer confiscated from minors. According to testimony at a Wednesday hearing, Cpl. Tim Horne was one of several officers who responded to a party where there was underage drinking. Officers confiscated nearly four full cases of beer. Horne admitted to laughing at a comment that the beer should be given to another officer, although he denied making the comment, according to the Kingsport Times-News. Later the beer was given to the other officer and Horne approved a report stating it had been destroyed. Horne's attorneys argued that firing him was an overreaction. The department should decide his fate next week. #kingsportpoliceofficerhorne
