Peevyhouse claims the accusations against him were brought by a vindictive woman (Hargett), he told The Associated Press. "I just don't feel like I did anything wrong," he said.

"If I had, why didn't they say anything to me back in 1994? Why did they let it go all those years? Instead, they kept paying me." Hargett, 38, a former nurse, worked for the Peevyhouses at the couple's Jackson business, We Care Home Services, from the fall of 1995 to early 1996.

According to the Gibson County Sheriffs Department, Hargett was arrested May 13, 1996, and charged with assaulting Kim Peevyhouse. "I did some things wrong with her, but I didn't do it while I was on duty," Peevyhouse said. "But she's so mad, she's trying to get even with me." The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Hargett told investigators Peevyhouse had flown her to Reelfoot to eat, according to Greene's letter. Hargett also said she and Peevyhouse had sex at the Jackson Highway Patrol Headquarters on Country Club Lane and in his patrol car. Reached Tuesday, Maness declined comment. Hargett could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

But there were nearly three dozen violations of departmental rules, regulations and policies, his supervisor CapL Gerald Allen said. Why the resignation Jackson Attorney Mike Mosier, who is representing Peevyhouse, said his client resigned to protect future benefits he would receive from the state.
