And Bradley County Sheriff Jim Ruth is still on medical leave recovering from a stroke, but he says he intends to get back to work as soon as possible.
Ruth spent several days at the beginning of the month in an intensive care unit in Nashville.
Still, some deputies complain they weren't given accurate information about the sheriff's illness.
One said it took 11 days for the department to tell deputies that the sheriff had a stroke.
But Chief Deputy Wayne Bird says the department has been very up front and honest about Ruth's condition since the beginning.
For his part, the sheriff says doctors are pleased with his progress. He hopes to go home early this week.
