On Thursday, the Giles County Sheriff’s Department announced the arrest of local resident Daryl Hart for breaching the regulations set forth by the state’s Sex Offender Registry. Hart faces several charges related to these violations and has since been taken into custody at the Giles County Detention Center.
In light of this incident, the Sheriff’s Department took the opportunity to remind the community of an important legal obligation. In Tennessee, all citizens are designated as mandated reporters when it comes to instances of child abuse and neglect. This means that anyone who becomes aware of such situations is legally required to report their findings to the appropriate local law enforcement authorities.
