Court Deal Comes With a Catch By The Herald Staff
Former Franklin County Sheriff Jeff Curry must complete a 12 month diversion to have charges dropped. He is required to attend school or work regularly, surrender his law enforcement license, avoid violent contact, and comply with drug testing and address reporting. He waived a jury trial, and the case remains on standby if terms are violated.
