Ex-sheriff in Noxubee Co. gets one-day sentence for lying to FBI
SUMMARY: Former Noxubee County Sheriff Terry Grassaree has been sentenced to one day in prison for lying to the FBI. In addition to the prison time, he also faces a $2,500 fine and three years of probation. Grassaree abused his position by soliciting nude photos and videos from a female inmate in exchange for preferential treatment, such as providing jail benefits and job assignments. He was indicted by a federal grand jury in 2022. Alongside him, former deputy Vance Phillips pleaded guilty to related charges and was sentenced to the same prison term.
