An investigation by special agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has resulted in the indictment and arrest of a former Shelby County Assistant District Attorney General, three former Memphis Police Department employees, a Memphis attorney, and four others on various charges.
At the request of 30th District Attorney General Amy Weirich, in June 2020, TBI agents began investigating the improper use of confidential information by someone within her office. General Weirich subsequently recused herself from the case and 13th District Attorney General Bryant Dunaway was appointed as District Attorney General Pro Tem. During the course of the investigation, agents developed information that former 30th District Assistant District Attorney General Glenda Adams and 8 other individuals were responsible for an elaborate scheme to profit from the use of confidential information in Memphis police reports. The investigation is ongoing and more indictments are expected.
