Civilian Will Stewart, during an argument heard Officer Means say, “The Sheriff’s department was trying to pawn it off on the PD.” He also mentioned that her behavior might have been construed as unprofessional, but that he was not offended. This account by Stewart affirms Shauna Karnes’s interpretation of the event.
Sgt. Shannon advised Officer Means that an accusation was that she had made comments in front of a civilian that the BCSO didn’t like to do their work and tried to pawn their reports or work on us. She responded by saying that she never said anything like that in front of a civilian.
