Metro Council Candidate Gwendolyn Brown-Felder refused to bring her own property up to codes, so Metro put a Lien on it.

Jason Steen

Gwendolyn Brown-Felder is running for the hotly contested District 1 City Council seat in Nashville – an election that happens this Thursday (05/24). On her platform, she pledges to “Improve our district”, and wants to “Improve the inconsistent application of the law (codes)”. We might have some insight on why she has such strong feelings about codes. She was sued by Metro Codes, she lost, and they had to put a lien on her property as she refused to pay the fine and court costs to them. This isn’t some long-standing…

Jason Steen

Pro-Tect Security, based in East Nashville, was the company founded by Demetrius Tucker that provided unlicensed armed guards involved in the deadly shooting at Cloud IX earlier this month. During research of the security company, we found it was ran out of his mother’s house in East Nashville, according to all legal documents.

Jason Steen

Over the weekend, Erica Fenton stated that some time ago she hired ‘Pro-Tect’, a security company owned by Demetrius Tucker, to manage both her personal and the company’s (Cloud IX) security. This is the company that had employees on duty that were involved in the deadly shooting earlier in the month. After we revealed that two of Pro-Tect’s security officers involved in the shooting were not licensed as armed guards in Tennessee, Fenton announced she has fired Pro-Tect Security, and has hired a new security company, though she did not…

Did Councilman Brett Withers Lie On City Permit Application?

Jason Steen

When city councilman Brett Withers bought his house on Granada Av, he wanted to build a deck – except he couldn’t be bothered to go get the permit himself, so he sent someone. That someone was Sherry Carter, an openly gay woman in Nashville; a lesbian, by her own account. This is important, because Brett is an openly gay man. Yet on the legal application for a permit, which is all public record, under oath of a notary, she purported herself to be Brett Wither’s “girlfriend” – a relationship that…

Councilman Brett Withers Gets Bitchy Over Boobs

Jason Steen

Oh Brett Withers, you never cease to amaze embarrass us. It was bound to happen at some point. An openly gay man in East Nashville was bound to eventually snap over fake boobs. No one expected they would be attached to a blow-up sex doll, though. That’s exactly what happened on Friday. You would think a councilman charged with a DUI, who has a life partner that was charged with growing marijuana with 1,000 ft of a school, would be just a little more laid back and chill about a…
