Rausch appointed TBI head
Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam has announced the appointment of David B. Rausch as director of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI). Rausch, 55, has served as chief of police for the Knoxville Police Department since 2011. “David brings a wealth of experience to the TBI and the proven leadership to continue the great progress the agency has made in making Tennessee safer. As police chief in Knoxville, he took on both urban and rural public safety issues and collaborated with local, state and federal partners to help address some of the region’s most pressing crimes, such as gang activity and human trafficking,” Haslam said. At the same time, Acting TBI Director Jason Locke is under investigation. His wife contacted authorities to say Locke used state funds during an affair with another state employee.
