Tipton County Constables Gather for In-Service Training - June 2023
Tipton County Constables gathered for a 2 hour session on Report Writing and Jail Intake Procedures on June 1st, 2023. Constables are required to accomplish 40 hours of In-service training annually. Constables often accomplish more than 40 hours in a year, all of which is unpaid. This annual proficiency training is not only essential for improvement, it is required by Tennessee Law. Constable Osborn (District 7) led the training for Constables Mayo, Miller, Smith, and Stroud.
Constable Osborn is a natural leader and is well suited for this role as a former Deputy for the Tipton County Sheriff.

“We’ve been overwhelmed and we can’t thank our community and outside of our community, we can’t thank them enough,” said Tipton County Sheriff Shannon Beasley. Despite the overwhelming help, law enforcement are now on the lookout for potential looters. “We’ve had THP as well as the sheriff’s office as well that are helping us and also our local constables,” said Covington Police Chief Donna Turner.
Constable Smith was on location at Indian Creek where the devastation turned fatal for one Tipton County man. Also known to be working in the area were Constables Fisher and Mayo. Constable Osborn was on duty in both the Recovery Center and at ground zero in Brighton.
