I received a press release attributed to Tim Wheeler. Mr. Wheeler has been a career employee in the Knox County Circuit, Chancery, Juvenile and Fourth Circuit Court Clerk. The clerk has been and continues to be Cathy Quist Shanks. Mr. Wheeler was apparently relieved of his duties yesterday. I am posting the release as submitted to me below.

I will continue to follow this incident and if Mrs. Shanks has comments, I will post those as well.
