Four of seven Nashville Police officers who had been put on administrative assignment following the leak of pages from a school shooter's journals to a conservative commentator have returned to regular duty, according to a police statement on Friday.
The officers had been placed on the administrative assignment to “protect the integrity" of the investigation into who leaked the documents, Metro Nashville Police Department spokesman Don Aaron said last week. He emphasized that the assignment is non-punitive. Police on Friday would not clarify whether the four officers who returned to regular duty have been cleared of any role in the leak.
