One More Lines Up Against Lineweaver

By Kleinheider Posted on April 2, 2009 at 1:05 pm

Enough opponents and Lineweaver can get busted by judges and newsmen all he wants.

But in attendance at the meeting was political no-name Jeff Brousal, who said he too was going to be challenging Lineweaver in next year’s election. Brousal has a PhD and works as a forensic toxicologist for the state of Tennessee department of agriculture.

In a campaign platform state, Brousal said he volunteers for the charitable group Court Appointed Special Advocates, and is familiar with the court system.

“I write a report to the judge in juvenile cases after interviewing the family, teachers, friends, and medical professionals that are involved,” Brousal said of his work with CASA for the juvenile court system. “I recommend services and plans of action for the best interest of the child. This is where I get my knowledge of the court system, procedures and the judges.”

Court officer David Smith has already announced he’s running, while school board member Karen Johnson and District 29 Councilwoman Vivian Wilhoite are also rumored to be interested in the position.
