Local Man Sentenced For Stealing From Honor Guard Account

The former commander of the Hull York Chapter of the Disabled American Veterans in Byrdstown will serve five years with the Tennessee Department of Corrections for stealing from the organization.

Glen Williams pleaded guilty this month to theft over $10,000.

A grand jury indicted Williams two years ago after an internal investigation found missing funds from the chapter’s Honor Guard Financial account.

Williams will also serve 15-years probation and must pay $45,000 in restitution to the honor guard.
