Charges filed against Bob Harshbarger Sr. — the father of Tennessee State Sen. Jon Lundberg's political opponent, Bobby Harshbarger, and the husband of Congresswoman Diana Harshbarger —have been dismissed. Lundberg filed a criminal warrant accusing Harshbarger Sr. of stealing and vandalizing election campaign signs. Lundberg claimed the act was caught on camera by volunteers. According to the Bristol Herald Courier, District Attorney General Pro Tem D. Michael Dunavant filed a motion to dismiss the charges with prejudice, writing in the motion, “After diligent investigation and review, the state finds that the available admissible evidence in this matter is insufficient to substantiate the statutory elements or support a conviction.”
