By Jerry Askin  There are close eyes on the EMS director in Bledsoe County. No word on  whether Larry Billingsley is still on the job.  The Bledsoe County Sheriff's Office is working with several agencies to conduct an investigation on Billingsley.He's a good guy. He's been at EMS for a long time, says Bledsoe county resident Lori Summers.  Summers is talking about Bledsoe County EMS director Larry Billingsley. She's known him for years.  And like many residents, she's in shock to hear Billingsley is under investigation by the sheriff's office, the T.B.I. and the Drug Enforcement Administration.That's a good guy. I would never imagine him doing anything that would put him in this kind of situation, says Summers. Bledsoe County Sheriff Jimmy Morris says Billingsley is under investigation accused of mishandling pharmaceutical products. He says an incident last Friday led to the investigation. Marie Sikes also knows Billingsley and says she's shocked.It seems odd that someone would represent their authority, says resident Marie Sikes.We went by Larry Billingsley's home trying to get some answers. No one answered the door when we knocked, even though we saw what appears to be his Bledose county EMS SUV parked out front.We asked the Sheriff whether Billingsley was still on the job. He told us he wasn't sure. So, we went by the EMS station to try and find out.  The EMS workers couldn't confirm either. The sheriff says they're working on finding out more and will let us know.  We called the county mayor for a comment.  He hasn't returned our phone calls. We'll certainly bring you more as we find out.
