Nashville Mayor Megan Barry Admits Affair With Head of Her Security

“God will forgive me, but the people of Nashville don’t have to. In the weeks and months to come, I will work hard to earn your forgiveness and earn back your trust,” the Nashville Mayor told reporters in prepared remarks.

Barry also apologized to her husband Bruce and took full responsibility for the pain caused to her own family and the family of Sgt. Forrest.
She accumulated more than $33,000 in travel expenses combined between her and Forrest from January 2017 to late October 2017 and said all of the trips were business-related.
Forrest said on Jan. 17 that he would retire Wednesday after 31-plus years with Metro Nashville Police. He spent 14 years of that tenure supervising the mayor’s security detail over three administrations.
In his own news release Wednesday, Forrest said he never violated his oath as a police officer or engaged in actions that would abuse the public trust. The retired officer asked for privacy as he seeks to rebuild the trust of those he loves the most.
“I deeply regret that my professional relationship with Mayor Barry turned into a personal one,” Forrest said in the release. “This has caused great pain for my wife, my family, friends, and colleagues.”
Barry also said she doesn’t want the affair to “muddy” the “Me Too” women’s movement.
“The ‘Me Too’ movement is about women who have been sexually harassed and economically disadvantaged for hundreds of years,” Barry said. “This is about two middle-aged, consenting adults who had feelings for each other, and were human and had failings.”
