"...After [David Richard] Tester was taken into custody, officers allowed a passenger in his vehicle to leave the scene of foot and walk to the home of a friend who lived nearby. Tester requested that officers contact C&K Towing to have his SUV towed from the scene and Sexton noted that during an inventory of the vehicle prior to it being towed, officers found “several open containers of alcohol” inside the SUV and photographed them.
Following his arrest, Tester was transported to the Carter County Detention Center. He was later released from the jail after the on-duty judicial commissioner set his bond on the charges as an O.R. (Own Recognizance) bond, which allowed Tester to be released from custody without having to post a traditional bond of money or property.
Tester is scheduled to appear in Carter County General Sessions Court on April 26.
In addition to serving as a member of the Elizabethton City Council, Tester serves as Chairman of the Carter County Tomorrow Board of Directors as well as one of its three acting presidents."
Given that Little Tester is due in court this Tuesday (April 26, 2016), perhaps our local news teams can force the mayor to release the Elizabethton Police Department videos, photographs, and arrest reports (along with the Carter County Sheriff's Department video and booking photographs).
