Maegan Hall's husband 'really wasn't on board' for swinging sessions
The husband of a police officer fired for allegedly sleeping with six colleagues plans to stand by her, according to reports.
Maegan Hall's
on-duty antics made headlines earlier this month when she was named as the main culprit when a La Vergne Police Department, Tennessee, investigation led to five officers being let go. The group were accused of having sex on duty and sending explicit images to one another.
A further three officers have been suspended without pay while the remaining 62 working at the Nashville-area station will undergo mandatory "retraining in 'rules, regulations and expectations", Jason Cole, mayor of La Vergne, has said.
Hall, 26, was said to have had affairs with a number of her colleagues, including sergeant Lewis Powell, officer Larry Holladay, officer Juan Lugo, sergeant Ty McGowan, and detective Seneca Shields.
In a report following
an internal investigation by the police department, it states that Hall also had a three-way with officer Patrick Magliocco and his wife, claims she denies.
The cops' sexual encounters are said to have taken place at hotels and people's homes. But the investigations claims that Hall also performed oral sex on sergeant Powell and detective Shields while on duty.
Hall reportedly told officers she was in an open marriage with Jedidiah Hall and tried to recruit her sheriff's deputy husband for swinging sessions.
However, Hall, the son of a pastor, "wasn't really on board" and instead confronted his wife of four years for cheating, according to an internal investigation.
But, according to reports, he is planning on staying with his wife.
"I don’t know how he’s doing it, he’s more of a man than I am, but he’s trying to salvage his marriage," Jedidiah's boss, Coffee County Sheriff Chad Partin, told the
Daily Mail.
“I don’t condone what went on at the La Vergne Police Department but he sure hasn’t broken any laws. He’s the victim here. There’s not a blemish on his record. He is doing a phenomenal, phenomenal job."
In December, and internal investigation was launched into Meagan's alleged sexual misconduct with other officers.
The report also suggests that Meagan had upset her husband at a party when she started kissing officer Patrick Magliocco's wife.
Commenting on the incident, Magliocco said in the report that Jedidiah "really wasn't on board" with her having a threesome.
On Monday, Police Chief Burrell Davis commented on the investigation and resulting terminations and suspensions, stating: "This is a difficult situation for our department and for the city, but I want to be clear that the actions of a few do not represent this department as a whole.
"This situation is being addressed internally with our staff, we are bringing in counsellors to help our officers work through these circumstances, and we will continue to provide the most professional protection as possible for this community.
"We have sufficient staff to cover all of our patrol shifts and I have full confidence in our officer’s ability to protect and serve. We are working diligently to rebuild the trust of our citizens and our community.
"We understand this will take time and diligence from our command staff and officers to repair the honor and integrity of our department."
Confronted this week by the Mail, Hall said only that she doesn't want to "discuss" the scandal, saying: "I'm just going to move on and live my life."
