Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn told the Kingsport Times-News" Hank Hayes that he "cannot comment on that" when asked what piece of information triggered a witch hunt by the investigative agency against State Representatives Tony Shipley (R-Kingsport) and Dale Ford (R-Jonesborough) after Shipley and Ford helped assure that three nurse-practitioners who were given a show-trial license revocation were given the fair hearing they never received to begin with. The revised process eventually resulted in all three nurses having their licenses restored to them, and the TBI turned their attention on Representatives that were trying to serve Tennesseans in need of justice.
The Examiner has covered this story from the very beginning, even bringing you the other side of the story from nurse Bob Reynolds, one of the nurses who stood falsely accused in an apparent vendetta. The TBI has yet to answer for the so-called "investigation" against Ford and Shipley. The agency should publicly apologize to Representatives Ford and Shipley and to the nurses for the false allegations made against them and the ruination that has been brought to the lives and careers of the nurses for whom Representatives Ford and Shipley were attempting to obtain a fair and just hearing.
