Two Hamblen County deputies, Deputy Luke McClellan and Deputy Matthew McMahan recently graduated from the Walters State Community College Regional Law Enforcement Training Academy, Class #140.

Hamblen County Sheriff Chad Mullins, who attended the ceremony, said he is thankful to have individuals the caliber of Deputy McClellan and Deputy McMahan as part of the HCSO.

“Of all law enforcement agencies they could have chosen, we’re proud that they chose us,” Mullins said. “We need people who are committed and dedicated when it comes to serving Hamblen County. We have it in these two gentlemen.”
