Longtime Tennessee commissioner arrested for shocking sex crimes against children
Tennessee residents of the city of Millersville were shocked to find out that their longtime city commissioner was arrested for numerous child sex allegations over four decades.The Sumner County Sheriff's Office said it took 76-year-old David Winston Gregory into custody on Wednesday at his home.'These allegations are serious. ... There is no place in our society for actions like what is being alleged.'The indictment claimed Gregory committed the crimes between 1987 and 2026, which included at least three instances of sexual abuse on a child that included three or more children. It further alleged that three of the instances constituted "the offense of aggravated sexual battery."He is being held at the Sumner County Jail on a $750,000 bond. Online records list two charges: continuous sexual abuse of a child and aggravated sexual battery.Other local officials were stunned by the allegations."As a government official where the alleged events occurred, it would not be appropriate for me to comment on this case," Millersville Mayor Lincoln Atwood said. "I have full confidence in those investigating these events. I also have full faith in our judicial system. No one is above the law.""These allegations are serious. My prayers are with all potential victims," Vice Mayor Dustin Darnall said. "I will remain committed to supporting all victims, especially victims of sexual abuse. There is no place in our society for actions like what is being alleged," he added.Gregory served as a city commissioner for 14 years. His current term expires in 2026.RELATED: Gay couple arrested on child sex abuse allegations — and they have 5 young sons Michael Shaw, a resident of the city, said the allegations were "disgusting" in comments to WKRN-TV."We can't have that kind of stuff," he said.

We got to have people that don't get like that."Gregory made headlines when he demanded that the town's assistant police chief, Shawn Taylor, apologize for spreading conspiracy theories alleging that police staged the Covenant School shooting in Nashville.Like Blaze News?

Wisconsin Supreme Court STRIKES DOWN race-based college grant program
A Wisconsin grant program intended to benefit minority students was struck down by the state's supreme court as discriminatory on Thursday.The court relied heavily on a previous U.S. Supreme Court opinion against race-based admission programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina.'This is also a big win for taxpayers, who can now challenge many other race-based programs in state court.'The Minority Undergraduate Retention Grant Program targeted black, Hispanic, and Native American students, as well as immigrants from Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam who migrated to the U.S. since 1975.Assistant Attorney General Charlotte Gibson argued that the state program was not restricted by the higher court order and met the standards set forth by the court.The court disagreed."The Constitution requires that every person 'must be treated based on his or her experiences as an individual — not on the basis of race,'" the ruling of the court reads.During the hearing, Chief Justice Jill Karofsky challenged the plaintiff attorney by citing a post from President Donald Trump about former President Barack Obama that many saw as racist."Just last week, the president of the United States posted a remarkably and insanely racist video of President and Michelle Obama depicted as apes," Karofsky said."In this state, people of color contribute to the vitality of our state, and they are thanked by facing disparities when it comes to housing, access to medical care, transportation, incarceration, financial stability, and education," she added. "Do you take issue with anything I just said up to that point?”Luke Berg, of the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty, responded that the worst discrimination is "when the law treats individuals differently based on their race."RELATED: Supreme Court hands huge victory to Trump over DEI funding — John Roberts sides with liberal justices The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty's managing vice president, Dan Lennington, praised the ruling."This is a major win for students," he said. "Race cannot be used to dole out scholarships and other financial aid. This is also a big win for taxpayers, who can now challenge many other race-based programs in state court. WILL is proud to stand for equal rights and make that case everywhere we can."Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
