The Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility (BPR) has cleared Davidson County District Attorney (DA) Glenn Funk of an ethics complaint filed by Comptroller Jason Mumpower, the Nashville Banner reports. The complaint related to the use of video cameras in the DA’s office and campaigning by staff. Following a September 2024 report by Mumpower’s office, the BPR launched a nine-month inquiry and found that the “complaint was without merit.” This follows Funk being cleared of any criminal wrongdoing by Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti last year. “The summary dismissal of Comptroller Mumpower's complaint by the Board of Professional Responsibility and the clearance letter from the State Attorney General were the obvious conclusions to these investigations as General Funk's Office operates at the highest levels of professionalism and integrity,” said Greg Reed, who represented Funk.
