A former Tennessee police officer fired for having sex with several of co-workers admitted she was “on the verge a divorce” which caused her to “crack.”

“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,” she told human resources, according to a transcript obtained by WSMV.
“I got stupid, I got desperate, I guess, and guys are guys and they’ll stick their d***s in anything.”

Hall’s remarks were about her affair with fellow former officer Sgt. Lewis Powell, with whom she had sex “a lot,” explaining, “his wife just doesn’t want to have sex with him,” according to the transcript.
Their affair became complicated once Hall tried to end things, with Powell allegedly polished off an bottle of Jack Daniels and threatened to take his own life.
“’I just want to kill myself,’” Powell allegedly told Hall. “‘I wanted to drive off and get into a wreck and it’s because of you.’”
The pair eventually stopped texting but Hall ended up having more trysts with colleagues which resulted in the firing of five officers, including Hall and Powell (along with patrol officer Juan Lugo Perez, Det. Seneca Shields and Sgt. Henry Ty McGowan), and the suspension of three others (K-9 officer Larry Holladay, and patrol officers Patrick Magliocco and Gavin Schoeberl).
Hall tried to convince her park ranger husband, Jedidiah Hall, to swap partners with Magliocco and his wife, but he refused.
She also told the investigator that she and McGowan tried to get her husband to participate in group sex with them and McGowan’s wife.
“Ty wanted to try to get Jed to have a thing with all of us,” she recalled. “We played strip Uno and then (McGowan’s wife) went out onto the patio with Jed, me and Ty kissed for a little bit and then that was it.”
Hall also exchanged nude photos with Schoeberl, Magliocco, Powell and Holladay.
She said during the interview that she learned “nothing outside of the PD stays outside of the PD.”
