MNPD Officer arrested for DUI was attempting suicide with duty weapon after breakup, court documents reveal
Metro Nashville Police issued a simple statement that one of their officers had been dismissed after he was charged with DUI when his "pickup truck hit another vehicle's side mirror, and he left the scene". Court records show Officer Jerram Plastow had actually driven to an East Nashville Public Housing Community to commit suicide with his Glock 22 duty weapon after his girlfriend broke up with him. MNPD only disclosed the DUI narrative and did not release any of the other details on the mental stability of the 32-year-old officer they had recently given a gun and badge to protect the city.
