The female Tennessee police officer who was fired along with four other cops for engaging in on-duty escapades and claimed to be in an open relationship is speaking out, admitting she got “stupid, desperate” amid a divorce.
Female Tennessee police officer and four other cops fired over on-duty adult activities
Earlier this month, five police officers in the city of La Vergne, Tennessee, were fired, and three others were suspended, after allegations emerged of on-duty adult romps, including a “Girls Gone Wild”-style hot tub party.
The investigation was initiated after La Vergne Mayor Jason Cole got an anonymous complaint, News Channel 9 reported.
Female patrol officer Maegan Hall was at the center of the scandal, as she had affairs with several officers while claiming she was in an open marriage. However, her husband Jedidiah, a Park Ranger, did not agree with that claim, the Daily Mail reported.
Hall joined the police department in 2021 and married Jedidiah in 2018.
A reported internal investigation accused Hall of illicit activity with one officer in the Police Department gym while on duty, as well as exposing her breasts while at a “family” Memorial Day hot tub party on a boat.
In addition to Hall, the four officers who were fired are Sgt. Lewis Powell, Sgt. Henry Ty McGowan, Detective Seneca Shields, and Officer Juan Lugo-Perez. Officers Larry Holloday, Patrick Magliocco, and Gavin Schoeberl were suspended.
Former TN cop admits she got “stupid, desperate” amid divorce
A 61-page transcript of an internal investigation of Maegan Hall was recently obtained by WSMV 4 and reveals the 26-year-old former officer coming clean about her actions and how things spiraled out of control, the New York Post reported.
“Me and my husband were kind of on the verge of a divorce and I just cracked and then it just kind of got out of hand,” Hall said, according to the transcript.
“I got stupid,” Hall continued. “I got desperate. I guess guys are guys and they’ll stick their d— in anything.”
Hall admitted to performing a lewd act on Sergeant Lewis Powell inside a police substation. She elaborated on the affair with Powell, which she claimed became toxic when she tried to break things off. According to Hall, Powell threatened to kill himself by drinking an entire bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey and then getting into a car wreck.
Paul claims Powell told her: “It’s because of you and you did this to me and you hurt me.”
She said she finally was able to end the affair by telling Powell she was sexually involved with someone else.
She also admitted to a threesome with officer Patrick Magliocco and his wife, as well as tried to coax her husband into a wife swap, but he refused. Hall also said she and multiple officers had exchanged nude photographs.
