Back in the reporter days of Trent Seibert and Brad Schrade at the Tennessean, we learned of numerous problems within the Tennessee Highway Patrol.  In the continuing saga, the News Sentinel has a big story out today with claims by one officer that nothing has changed.

From the Sentinel:

A Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper refused to play politics with his superiors and wound up suspended for two weeks on bogus claims, harassed and threatened, a federal lawsuit claims.

Attorney Arthur F. Knight III has filed in U.S. District Court a lawsuit on behalf of Trooper Marty Nix against the Tennessee Department of Safety, which commands THP, and a slew of superiors.

and this:

An investigation by the Tennessean newspaper in Nashville into the agency led Gov. Phil Bredesen to vow a clean-up. As part of that, Mitchell took the helm.

However, Nix insists in his lawsuit nothing has changed at the agency.
