The Tennessee Senate has passed a resolution to form a joint committee to consider removing Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy from office. Action News 5 reports that Senate Joint Resolution 26, sponsored by Sen. Brent Taylor, R-Memphis, now heads to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Taylor and Mulroy have been at odds for months. Taylor outlined his case for Mulroy’s removal earlier this month. Mulroy has responded to efforts to remove him from office, including calling the effort “political.” Last summer, House Speaker Cameron Sexton, R-Crossville, revealed he was in talks with the attorney general about removing Mulroy from office.
