Gov. Bill Lee has appointed Quantel Lindsey of Cleveland — a man he pardoned for a previous life of drugs, violence and jail time — as the East Tennessee member of a newly created Inmate Disciplinary Oversight Board. “This is a full-time job to be on this board and I look forward to serving the state of Tennessee,” Lindsey tells the Knoxville News Sentinel. The board, which is still being created, will grant or deny sentencing credits for good behavior and determine whether previously awarded credits should be removed for certain infractions.
