Scammers use names of a judge and a detective to call people directing them to pay for missing jury duty. Judges and detectives DO NOT call people and ask for money, gift cards or bitcoins for missing jury duty. Don’t fall for this scam by simply hanging up the phone.

Many of Rutherford County's roads are rural. Based on 2010 Census data, 93% of TN is rural. Roads in rural areas can be especially dangerous due to the lack of streetlights and other safety features, and may have unique hazards that drivers will have to look out for. #SlowDownTN

Please share Beware of SCAM texts claiming to be from RCTNSheriff. Someone texted a woman posing as a Lt. about a “legal matter.” Deputies don't text people about “legal matters.” Ignore these texts from likely scammers. This was an attempt to get your hard-earned money.
