WZTV FOX 17 - Top Stories
The 2nd half of the field in the Hendersonville Mayor's race. The 4 candidates faced off today in an afternoon forum hosted by the Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce. The audience at Bluegrass Country Club was made up primarily of business leaders. FOX17's Scott Couch moderated the panel, asking questions generated by the Chamber's Government Relations Committee. 8 year incumbent Scott Foster says he'd like to finish some high profile road projects begun under his administration and continue the city's recent growth.
"Family Circle Magazine rates us one of the top 10 places to raise families," says Foster. "We want the corporate guys to understand Hendersonville is just that. Bring your families, bring your friends. CNN Money Magazine just rated us one of the Top 100 Places to Live. So, we have a lot of accolades to show off and show Hendersonville is phenomenal."
"We've got kids playing volleyball in the middle of Main Street," says Brown. "We're a unique city, and I want folks to know I want to keep that unique quality of life and I want to make it better than it is right now."
In Part 1, we heard from longtime City Councilmen Garry Forsythe and Tommy Elsten.

Former Dyer County constable sentenced to prison
May 23, 2013 12:50 GMT
DYERSBURG, Tenn. (AP) -- Former Dyer County Constable Derick Shane Hundley has been sentenced to 25 years in federal prison.
The State Gazette (http://bit.ly/14UHydd ) reported Hundley was sentenced Monday after earlier entering a guilty plea to enticement of a minor through electronic means. The government dropped a child pornography count.
Prosecutors said Hundley, who is 30, used a cellphone to try to entice a minor female to have sex with him. Police arrested Hundley last July and found an external hard drive that contained numerous images of minors involved in sex. He resigned from the constable post he had won in 2010 after his arrest.
