Authorities: Man freed 2 years after wife’s false accusation
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Authorities say a man has been freed from a Tennessee prison more than two years after his wife lied about him threatening her.
The Tennessean (http://tnne.ws/2hFojk2 ) reports 33-year-old Robert E. Polk of Nashville was released Nov. 23, days after the state parole board agreed to reinstate his parole. Polk’s parole in a drug case had been revoked in 2014 after his wife claimed he had threatened her with a gun.
