A special legislative committee today found that state Rep. Jeremy Durham, R-Franklin, engaged in “disorderly behavior” that warranted expulsion, but decided to leave it up to voters to determine whether he should continue serving, the Tennessean reports. Before making its decision, the committee heard the results of Attorney General Hebert Slatery’s inquiry, which found that Durham had engaged sexually with 22 women, including current and former female legislative staff, interns, lobbyists and others between 2012 and 2016. Read the committee's report or follow how the news unfolded today on this timeline of Twitter posts.
